Subclasses implement 91 * specific collation strategies. One subclass, 92 * <code>RuleBasedCollator</code>, is currently provided and is applicable 93 * to a wide set of languages. Other subclasses may be created to handle more 94 * specialized needs. 95 * <p> 96 * Like other locale-sensitive classes, you can use the static factory method, 97 * <code>createInstance</code>, to obtain the appropriate 98 * <code>Collator</code> object for a given locale. You will only need to 99 * look at the subclasses of <code>Collator</code> if you need to 100 * understand the details of a particular collation strategy or if you need to 101 * modify that strategy. 102 * <p> 103 * The following example shows how to compare two strings using the 104 * <code>Collator</code> for the default locale. 105 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 106 * <pre> 107 * \code 108 * // Compare two strings in the default locale 109 * UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; 110 * Collator* myCollator = Collator::createInstance(success); 111 * if (myCollator->compare("abc", "ABC") < 0) 112 * cout << "abc is less than ABC" << endl; 113 * else 114 * cout << "abc is greater than or equal to ABC" << endl; 115 * \endcode 116 * </pre> 117 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 118 * <p> 119 * You can set a <code>Collator</code>'s <em>strength</em> attribute to 120 * determine the level of difference considered significant in comparisons. 121 * Five strengths are provided: <code>PRIMARY</code>, <code>SECONDARY</code>, 122 * <code>TERTIARY</code>, <code>QUATERNARY</code> and <code>IDENTICAL</code>. 123 * The exact assignment of strengths to language features is locale dependent. 124 * For example, in Czech, "e" and "f" are considered primary differences, 125 * while "e" and "\u00EA" are secondary differences, "e" and "E" are tertiary 126 * differences and "e" and "e" are identical. The following shows how both case 127 * and accents could be ignored for US English. 128 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly 129 * <pre> 130 * \code 131 * //Get the Collator for US English and set its strength to PRIMARY 132 * UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; 133 * Collator* usCollator = Collator::createInstance(Locale::getUS(), success); 134 * usCollator->setStrength(Collator::PRIMARY); 135 * if (usCollator->compare("abc", "ABC") == 0) 136 * cout << "'abc' and 'ABC' strings are equivalent with strength PRIMARY" << endl; 137 * \endcode 138 * </pre> 139 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly 140 * 141 * The <code>getSortKey</code> methods 142 * convert a string to a series of bytes that can be compared bitwise against 143 * other sort keys using <code>strcmp()</code>. Sort keys are written as 144 * zero-terminated byte strings. 145 * 146 * Another set of APIs returns a <code>CollationKey</code> object that wraps 147 * the sort key bytes instead of returning the bytes themselves. 148 * </p> 149 * <p> 150 * <strong>Note:</strong> <code>Collator</code>s with different Locale, 151 * and CollationStrength settings will return different sort 152 * orders for the same set of strings. Locales have specific collation rules, 153 * and the way in which secondary and tertiary differences are taken into 154 * account, for example, will result in a different sorting order for same 155 * strings. 156 * </p> 157 * @see RuleBasedCollator 158 * @see CollationKey 159 * @see CollationElementIterator 160 * @see Locale 161 * @see Normalizer2 162 * @version 2.0 11/15/01 163 */ 164 165 class U_I18N_API Collator : public UObject { 166 public: 167 168 // Collator public enums ----------------------------------------------- 169 170 /** 171 * Base letter represents a primary difference.
