26 /**
27  *  Initialize ICU. The description further below applies to ICU 2.6 to ICU 3.4.
28  *  Starting with ICU 3.4, u_init() needs not be called any more for
29  *  ensuring thread safety, but it can give an indication for whether ICU
30  *  can load its data. In ICU 3.4, it will try to load the converter alias table
31  *  (cnvalias.icu) and give an error code if that fails.
32  *  This may change in the future.
33  *  <p>
34  *  For ensuring the availability of necessary data, an application should
35  *  open the service objects (converters, collators, etc.) that it will use
36  *  and check for error codes there.
37  *  <p>
38  *  Documentation for ICU 2.6 to ICU 3.4:
39  *  <p>
40  *  This function loads and initializes data items
41  *  that are required internally by various ICU functions.  Use of this explicit
42  *  initialization is required in multi-threaded applications; in
43  *  single threaded apps, use is optional, but incurs little additional
44  *  cost, and is thus recommended.
45  *  <p>
46  *  In multi-threaded applications, u_init() should be called  in the
47  *  main thread before starting additional threads, or, alternatively
48  *  it can be called in each individual thread once, before other ICU
49  *  functions are called in that thread.  In this second scenario, the
50  *  application must guarantee that the first call to u_init() happen
51  *  without contention, in a single thread only.
52  *  <p>
53  *  If <code>u_setMemoryFunctions()</code> or
54  *  <code>u_setMutexFunctions</code> are needed (uncommon), they must be
55  *  called _before_ <code>u_init()</code>.
56  *  <p>
57  *  Extra, repeated, or otherwise unneeded calls to u_init() do no harm,
58  *  other than taking a small amount of time.
59  *
60  * @param status An ICU UErrorCode parameter. It must not be <code>NULL</code>.
61  *    An Error will be returned if some required part of ICU data can not
62  *    be loaded or initialized.
63  *    The function returns immediately if the input error code indicates a
64  *    failure, as usual.
65  *

71 /**
72  * Clean up the system resources, such as allocated memory or open files,
73  * used in all ICU libraries. This will free/delete all memory owned by the
74  * ICU libraries, and return them to their original load state. All open ICU
75  * items (collators, resource bundles, converters, etc.) must be closed before
76  * calling this function, otherwise ICU may not free its allocated memory
77  * (e.g. close your converters and resource bundles before calling this
78  * function). Generally, this function should be called once just before
79  * an application exits. For applications that dynamically load and unload
80  * the ICU libraries (relatively uncommon), u_cleanup() should be called
81  * just before the library unload.
82  * <p>
83  * u_cleanup() also clears any ICU heap functions, mutex functions or
84  * trace functions that may have been set for the process.
85  * This has the effect of restoring ICU to its initial condition, before
86  * any of these override functions were installed.  Refer to
87  * u_setMemoryFunctions(), u_setMutexFunctions and
88  * utrace_setFunctions().  If ICU is to be reinitialized after after
89  * calling u_cleanup(), these runtime override functions will need to
90  * be set up again if they are still required.
91  * <p>
92  * u_cleanup() is not thread safe.  All other threads should stop using ICU
93  * before calling this function.
94  * <p>
95  * Any open ICU items will be left in an undefined state by u_cleanup(),
96  * and any subsequent attempt to use such an item will give unpredictable
97  * results.
98  * <p>
99  * After calling u_cleanup(), an application may continue to use ICU by
100  * calling u_init().  An application must invoke u_init() first from one single
101  * thread before allowing other threads call u_init().  All threads existing
102  * at the time of the first thread's call to u_init() must also call
103  * u_init() themselves before continuing with other ICU operations.
104  * <p>
105  * The use of u_cleanup() just before an application terminates is optional,
106  * but it should be called only once for performance reasons. The primary
107  * benefit is to eliminate reports of memory or resource leaks originating
108  * in ICU code from the results generated by heap analysis tools.
109  * <p>
110  * <strong>Use this function with great care!</strong>
