Widestring remains the COM compatible one AFAICS, and there is a new UnicodeString that maybe has ref counting features. I quote: "WideString will remain a BSTR for use in interoperating with COM. The good thing is that the conversions between BSTRs and UnicodeStrings is much more simple and straight forward..."
