-// HOW TO EXPORT CSTDSTRING FROM A DLL
-//
-// If you want to export CStdStringA and CStdStringW from a DLL, then all you
-// need to
-//		1.	make sure that all components link to the same DLL version
-//			of the CRT (not the static one).
-//		2.	Uncomment the 3 lines of code below
-//		3.	#define 2 macros per the instructions in MS KnowledgeBase
-//			article Q168958.  The macros are:
-//
-//		MACRO		DEFINTION WHEN EXPORTING		DEFINITION WHEN IMPORTING
-//		-----		------------------------		-------------------------
-//		SSDLLEXP	(nothing, just #define it)		extern
-//		SSDLLSPEC	__declspec(dllexport)			__declspec(dllimport)
-//
-//		Note that these macros must be available to ALL clients who want to 
-//		link to the DLL and use the class.  If they 
-// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

-// In MFC builds, define some global serialization operators
-// Special operators that allow us to serialize CStdStrings to CArchives.
-// Note that we use an intermediate CString object in order to ensure that
-// we use the exact same format.
