Hello everyone,


I would like to learn some experiences about when should we use std::basic_string and when should we use std::string?

I learned some Hello World level samples and now want to listen to your practical experiences. :-)

George:

std::string is just a typedef

namespace std
{
typedef basic_string<char> string;
typedef std::basic_string<wchar_t) wstring;
}

Normally you just use std::string or std::wstring.
