If you read the constructor you see that pos get set to string::npos
if the substring is not found. so a subsequent replace will fail.
If you know that the substring is present,
LSubString(str, "substr") = "newsubstr";
would be ok.
LSubString foo(command, "$$FNAME");
for a command that does not contain a $$FNAME would not be a valid
substring.
So everything you do with it will fail/throw/abort etc.
