Detailed Description

This is a generic and portable string class.Generic string class.

It uses optimized memory allocation strategies to efficiently handle smaller string content by grouping strings into 32 byte aligned slots that can be re-allocated from a free list directly.

While meant to cover the basic functionality of the ANSI C++ string class in form and function, this class offers some important enhancements, including the ability to derive class type specific versions of itself. The latter might be used to derive a unicode string, a string for data and time data types, or to add case insensitive comparisons, for example.
