The Better String Library is an abstraction of a
string data type which is superior to the C
library char buffer string type and C++'s
std::string. Among the features achieved are
substantial mitigation of buffer
overflow/overrun problems and other failures
that result from erroneous usage of the
common C string library functions, significantly
simplified string manipulation, high
performance interoperability with other
libraries that expect '\0' terminated buffers,
high performance common string operations,
and functional equivalency with other more
modern languages.
