47 /**
48  *
49  * Collation keys are generated by the Collator class.  Use the CollationKey objects
50  * instead of Collator to compare strings multiple times.  A CollationKey
51  * preprocesses the comparison information from the Collator object to
52  * make the comparison faster.  If you are not going to comparing strings
53  * multiple times, then using the Collator object is generally faster,
54  * since it only processes as much of the string as needed to make a
55  * comparison.
56  * <p> For example (with strength == tertiary)
57  * <p>When comparing "Abernathy" to "Baggins-Smythworthy", Collator
58  * only needs to process a couple of characters, while a comparison
59  * with CollationKeys will process all of the characters.  On the other hand,
60  * if you are doing a sort of a number of fields, it is much faster to use
61  * CollationKeys, since you will be comparing strings multiple times.
62  * <p>Typical use of CollationKeys are in databases, where you store a CollationKey
63  * in a hidden field, and use it for sorting or indexing.
64  *
65  * <p>Example of use:
66  * <pre>
67  * \code
68  *     UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
69  *     Collator* myCollator = Collator::createInstance(success);
70  *     CollationKey* keys = new CollationKey [3];
71  *     myCollator->getCollationKey("Tom", keys[0], success );
72  *     myCollator->getCollationKey("Dick", keys[1], success );
73  *     myCollator->getCollationKey("Harry", keys[2], success );
74  *
75  *     // Inside body of sort routine, compare keys this way:
76  *     CollationKey tmp;
77  *     if(keys[0].compareTo( keys[1] ) > 0 ) {
78  *         tmp = keys[0]; keys[0] = keys[1]; keys[1] = tmp;
79  *     }
80  *     //...
81  * \endcode
82  * </pre>
83  * <p>Because Collator::compare()'s algorithm is complex, it is faster to sort
84  * long lists of words by retrieving collation keys with Collator::getCollationKey().
85  * You can then cache the collation keys and compare them using CollationKey::compareTo().
86  * <p>
87  * <strong>Note:</strong> <code>Collator</code>s with different Locale,
88  * CollationStrength and DecompositionMode settings will return different
89  * CollationKeys for the same set of strings. Locales have specific
90  * collation rules, and the way in which secondary and tertiary differences
91  * are taken into account, for example, will result in different CollationKeys
92  * for same strings.
