24  * A UParseError struct is used to returned detailed information about
25  * parsing errors.  It is used by ICU parsing engines that parse long
26  * rules, patterns, or programs, where the text being parsed is long
27  * enough that more information than a UErrorCode is needed to
28  * localize the error.
29  *
30  * <p>The line, offset, and context fields are optional; parsing
31  * engines may choose not to use to use them.
32  *
33  * <p>The preContext and postContext strings include some part of the
34  * context surrounding the error.  If the source text is "let for=7"
35  * and "for" is the error (e.g., because it is a reserved word), then
36  * some examples of what a parser might produce are the following:
37  *
38  * <pre>
39  * preContext   postContext
40  * ""           ""            The parser does not support context
41  * "let "       "=7"          Pre- and post-context only
42  * "let "       "for=7"       Pre- and post-context and error text
43  * ""           "for"         Error text only
44  * </pre>
45  *
46  * <p>Examples of engines which use UParseError (or may use it in the
47  * future) are Transliterator, RuleBasedBreakIterator, and
48  * RegexPattern.
