Here is what STL says about basic_string:

The basic_string class represents a Sequence of characters. It contains
all the usual operations of a Sequence, and, additionally, it contains
standard string operations such as search and concatenation.

                                             !! HERE !!
                                           vvvvvvvvvvvvvv
The basic_string class is parameterized by character type, and by that
type's Character Traits. Most of the time, however, there is no need to
use the basic_string template directly. The types string and wstring are
typedefs for, respectively, basic_string<char> and
basic_string<wchar_t>.
