## Detailed Description

Dynamic reference to a string character.

UCharReference is the dynamic counterpart of UChar. It's used when characters retrieved via index from a UString are used in an assignment expression (and therefore can't be treated as being const):

     UString s("hello world");
     s[0] = 'H';

If that sounds confusing your best bet is to simply forget about the existence of this class and treat is as being identical to UChar.
