+/** @brief C++ string class.
+ *
+ * This is a C++ string class that does not depend on anything else except IPRT
+ * memory management functions. Semantics are like in std::string, except it
+ * can do a lot less.
+ *
+ * Note that RTCString does not differentiate between NULL strings
+ * and empty strings. In other words, RTCString("") and RTCString(NULL)
+ * behave the same. In both cases, RTCString allocates no memory, reports
+ * a zero length and zero allocated bytes for both, and returns an empty
+ * C-style string from c_str().
+ *
+ * @note RTCString ASSUMES that all strings it deals with are valid UTF-8.
+ * The caller is responsible for not breaking this assumption.
+ */

+ * the old Utf8Str though, RTCString always knows the length of its
+ * member string and the size of the buffer so it can use memcpy()
+ * instead of strdup().
