42  * Documentation? What's that?
43  * Nathan Myers <ncm@cantrip.org>.
44  *
45  * A string looks like this:
46  *
47  * @code
48  * [_Rep]
49  * _M_length
50  * [__rc_string_base<char_type>] _M_capacity
51  * _M_dataplus _M_refcount
52  * _M_p ----------------> unnamed array of char_type
53  * @endcode
54  *
55  * Where the _M_p points to the first character in the string, and
56  * you cast it to a pointer-to-_Rep and subtract 1 to get a
57  * pointer to the header.
58  *
59  * This approach has the enormous advantage that a string object
60  * requires only one allocation. All the ugliness is confined
61  * within a single pair of inline functions, which each compile to
62  * a single @a add instruction: _Rep::_M_refdata(), and
63  * __rc_string_base::_M_rep(); and the allocation function which gets a
64  * block of raw bytes and with room enough and constructs a _Rep
65  * object at the front.
66  *
67  * The reason you want _M_data pointing to the character array and
68  * not the _Rep is so that the debugger can see the string
69  * contents. (Probably we should add a non-inline member to get
70  * the _Rep for the debugger to use, so users can check the actual
71  * string length.)
72  *
73  * Note that the _Rep object is a POD so that you can have a
74  * static <em>empty string</em> _Rep object already @a constructed before
75  * static constructors have run. The reference-count encoding is
76  * chosen so that a 0 indicates one reference, so you never try to
77  * destroy the empty-string _Rep object.
78  *
79  * All but the last paragraph is considered pretty conventional
80  * for a C++ string implementation.
