// This class manages a fixed-size, null-terminated string buffer.  It is meant
// to be allocated on the stack, and it makes no use of the heap internally.  In
// most cases you'll just want to use a std::(w)string, but when you need to
// avoid the heap, you can use this class instead.
//
// Methods are provided to read the null-terminated buffer and to append data
// to the buffer, and once the buffer fills-up, it simply discards any extra
// append calls.
//
// Since this object clips if the internal fixed buffer is exceeded, it is
// appropriate for exception handlers where the heap may be corrupted. Fixed
// buffers that overflow onto the heap are provided by Stack[W]String.
// (see stack_container.h).
