Is this for exposition purposes or actually how you expect it to work?
That's pretty much what it would take. The key here is that RCString
is almost a drop-in replacement for string, so the code using it is
almost identical. There will be places where code needs to be
replaced, e.g.
auto s = "literal";
would need to become
S s = "literal";
So creation of strings will change a bit, but overall there's not a
lot of churn.
I'm confused. Is this a general-purpose solution or just one that
switches between string and RCString?
General purpose since your suggested change. -- Andrei
