Equivalent of Bstr Wrapper of c# in vc++

Question

what is the equivalent of BstrWrapper of c# in vc++

Answer 1

In Win32 BSTR, other libraries might provide wrappers of this primitive type.

Answer 2

ATL has the quite handy CComBSTR class. However, ATL comes only with the paid versions of VS.

There's also the compiler COM support class _bstr_t.

And you can directly use the Win32 string manipulation functions.
