Syntax

Strings.replace(string, searchString, replaceString);
Strings.replace(string, searchString, replaceString,
                startIndex=1, replaceAll=true, caseSensitive=true);

Description

Search in "string" for "searchString" and replace the found substring by "replaceString".

  • The search starts at the first character of "string", or at character position "startIndex", if this optional argument is provided.
  • If the optional argument "replaceAll" is true (default), all occurrences of "searchString" are replaced. If the argument is false, only the first occurrence is replaced.
  • The search for "searchString" distinguishes upper and lower case letters. If the optional argument "caseSensitive" is false, the search ignores whether letters are upper or lower case.

The function returns the "string" with the performed replacements.

Syntax

result = replace(string, searchString, replaceString, startIndex, replaceAll, caseSensitive)
