File:String
Purpose:Primitive class for character/longchar variables
Author(s):pjudge
Created:Tue Aug 11 13:08:46 EDT 2009
Notes:* Named 'String' because of keyword/namespace conflicts with
ABL Primitive 'character'. There's no built-in class for this.
primitive value means that we don't have to distinguish between
primitives and types, which makes the code more readable.
