Signature
native replace_string(text[], maxlength, const search[], const replace[], bool:caseSensitive = true);
Description
Given a string, replaces all occurrences of a search string with a
replacement string.
Notes
-
Similar to replace_all() stock, but implemented as native and
with different algorithm. This native doesn't error on bad
buffer size and will smartly cut off the string in a way
that pushes old data out.
- Only available in 1.8.3 and above.
- This supports multi-byte characters (UTF-8) on case insensitive comparison.
Parameters
- text — String to perform search and replacements on.
- maxlength — Maximum length of the string buffer.
- search — String to search for.
- replace — String to replace the search string with.
- caseSensitive — If true (default), search is case sensitive.
Returns
Number of replacements that were performed.
