Function ierase_nth_copy

boost::algorithm::ierase_nth_copy — Erase nth algorithm ( case insensitive )

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/algorithm/string/erase.hpp>


template<typename OutputIteratorT, typename Range1T, typename Range2T> 
  OutputIteratorT 
  ierase_nth_copy(OutputIteratorT Output, const Range1T & Input, 
                  const Range2T & Search, int Nth, 
                  const std::locale & Loc = std::locale());
template<typename SequenceT, typename RangeT> 
  SequenceT ierase_nth_copy(const SequenceT & Input, const RangeT & Search, 
                            int Nth, const std::locale & Loc = std::locale());

Description

Remove the Nth occurrence of the substring in the input. The result is a modified copy of the input. It is returned as a sequence or copied to the output iterator. Searching is case insensitive.

	Note
	The second variant of this function provides the strong exception-safety guarantee

Parameters:

`Output`	An output iterator to which the result will be copied
`Input`	An input string
`Search`	A substring to be searched for.
`Nth`	An index of the match to be replaced. The index is 0-based. For negative N, matches are counted from the end of string.
`Loc`	A locale used for case insensitive comparison

Returns:

An output iterator pointing just after the last inserted character or a modified copy of the input
