TypeError: Region required

#1

I have build a plugin that replaces backslash with slash in current selection. But I get TypeError:Region required line 11

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class ReplaceBackslashCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        view = self.view
        selected = view.substr(view.sel()[0])
        content = selected.replace('\\', '/')
        print (content)
        print (selected)
        view.replace(edit, selected, content);

Managed to do it like this

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class ReplaceBackslashCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        view = self.view
        selected = view.substr(view.sel()[0])
        r = sublime.Region(view.sel()[0].a, view.sel()[0].b)
        content = selected.replace('\\', '/')
        view.replace(edit, r, content);
