String handling best practice

I'm about to start work on a application using Xerces. The problem is, I 
don't know how best to go about handling strings. Should I use the 
XMLString class or would I be better off using ICU's UnicodeString?

If I do use ICU's classes can I work on the assumtion that XMLCh* equals 
UChar* (They're both UTF-16) and just pass them straight on to Xerces 
API functions (what about win32 WCHAR* too?).

It all sounds like some kind of FAQ, but I can't find any definitive 
answer with regards to Xerces.
