IProxyReplacePathParts Method

This functionality is provided only for document nodes. For non-document nodes, this function does nothing. Replaces parts of the path of the document node by another part. If the replacement was successful, the original document node is cleared. See ReplacePathParts for details of the part replacement.

Part of the path that should be replaced. This part has to match the beginning of this part. The last item of the part is allowed to be given only partially.
