// using_std_string.h: Allows building this code in environments where

//                     global string (::string) exists.

//

// The problem:

// -------------

// Let's say you want to build this code in an environment where a global

// string type is defined (i.e. ::string).  Now, let's suppose that ::string

// is different that std::string and you'd like to have the option to easily

// choose between the two string types.  Ideally you'd like to control which

// string type is chosen by simply #defining an identifier.

//

// The solution:

// -------------

// #define HAS_GLOBAL_STRING somewhere in a global header file and then

// globally replace std::string with string.  Then include this header

// file everywhere where string is used.  If you want to revert back to

// using std::string, simply remove the #define (HAS_GLOBAL_STRING).
