The CFixedString class implements a CString-like class with a fixed-length string buffer.
The string buffer will be allocated on the stack and its size is determined using a class template argument.

The class uses the TCHAR.H runtime library for all its string manipulations. This makes it UNICODE and multi-byte aware, but also dependant on the C Runtime Library.
