For _copy variants it is natural and can save you the need for definition of temp variable.
You can write:

        if ( to_upper_copy( trim_copy(str) )=="ABC" )
        {
                ...
        }

Instead of

        std::string str1=trim_copy(str);
        to_upper(str1);

        if ( str1=="ABC" )
        {
                ...
        }
