I was thinking of std::string
That would also be a valid choice, although be aware that std::string is ASCII only, for Unicode you need to use std::wstring. I tend to use a typedef to define my own type which will be ASCII or Unicode, dependiing on the project settings. Something like:
C++
#if defined(UNICODE)
typedef	std::wstring	STRING;
#else
typedef	std::string	STRING;
#endif

Then I just use STRING everywhere in the rest of the code, and the compiler sorts it out for me.

From your comments above and the description of what your code is required to do, it seems that the choice is far less important than your first message implied.
