Comet tstring type.

In order for comet projects to more easily support unicode via the windows file "tchar.h", many comet classes support the type comet::tstring which is a convenience typedef to basic_string. Associated with tstring are all or most of the other STL classes that have a char argument to the templates.

In addition to being used by comet, this is a generally useful series of typedefs to be used when combining STL types with tchar.h compatible projects.

There are two area to be particularly wary of with STL and tchar.h.

The first is that the filename argument for file streams are always narrow char *. I would suggest using a comet::bstr_t which will convert for you, especially in UNICODE (actually UCS2 little-endien) projects.

The second is that tstring support for multi-byte character strings is very minimal. Embedded NULLs in the stream are not a problem for copying around, however none of the parsing/searching/comparison methods cope with multi-byte character sets.

I believe that part of the reason for this is the platform specific nature of multi-byte, and the internal support for a variety of different MBCS implementations by Microsoft.
