// use ScopedHString instead.
//
// Note that HStringReference requires certain functions that are only
// available on Windows 8 and later, and that these functions need to be
// delayloaded to avoid breaking Chrome on Windows 7.
//
// Callers MUST check the return value of ResolveCoreWinRTStringDelayLoad()
// *before* using HStringReference.

//
//   const bool success = HStringReference::ResolveCoreWinRTStringDelayload();
//   if (success) {
//     // HStringReference can be used.
//   } else {
//     // Handle error.

// Example use:
//
//   HStringReference string(L"abc");
