    CharacterArray is a superclass for all kinds of Strings (i.e.

    (singleByte-)Strings, TwoByteStrings and whatever comes in the future.

    As the name already implies, this class is abstract, meaning that there are

    no instances of it. All this class does is provide common protocol for 

    concrete subclasses.
