No, it's all eager copy. std::string is thoroughly botched. A good

I mean possible lifetime management options are:
1. string&
2. string*
3. shared_ptr<string>
4. weak_ptr<string>
5. unshared_ptr<string> (not interlocked; does something like this exist?)
This way string is just like any other object. It's C++ after all, the
foot must be shot.
Oh I see. (3 and 4 are infrequent, 5 doesn't exist). -- Andrei
