41  * \brief C API: UCollationElements
42  *
43  * The UCollationElements API is used as an iterator to walk through each
44  * character of an international string. Use the iterator to return the
45  * ordering priority of the positioned character. The ordering priority of a
46  * character, which we refer to as a key, defines how a character is collated
47  * in the given collation object.
48  * For example, consider the following in Spanish:
49  * <pre>
50  * .       "ca" -> the first key is key('c') and second key is key('a').
51  * .       "cha" -> the first key is key('ch') and second key is key('a').
52  * </pre>
53  * And in German,
54  * <pre>
55  * .       "<ae ligature>b"-> the first key is key('a'), the second key is key('e'), and
56  * .       the third key is key('b').
57  * </pre>
58  * <p>Example of the iterator usage: (without error checking)
59  * <pre>
60  * .  void CollationElementIterator_Example()
61  * .  {
62  * .      UChar *s;
63  * .      t_int32 order, primaryOrder;
64  * .      UCollationElements *c;
65  * .      UCollatorOld *coll;
66  * .      UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
67  * .      s=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (strlen("This is a test")+1) );
68  * .      u_uastrcpy(s, "This is a test");
69  * .      coll = ucol_open(NULL, &success);
70  * .      c = ucol_openElements(coll, str, u_strlen(str), &status);
71  * .      order = ucol_next(c, &success);
72  * .      ucol_reset(c);
73  * .      order = ucol_prev(c, &success);
74  * .      free(s);
75  * .      ucol_close(coll);
76  * .      ucol_closeElements(c);
77  * .  }
78  * </pre>
79  * <p>
80  * ucol_next() returns the collation order of the next.
81  * ucol_prev() returns the collation order of the previous character.
82  * The Collation Element Iterator moves only in one direction between calls to
83  * ucol_reset. That is, ucol_next() and ucol_prev can not be inter-used.
84  * Whenever ucol_prev is to be called after ucol_next() or vice versa,
85  * ucol_reset has to be called first to reset the status, shifting pointers to
86  * either the end or the start of the string. Hence at the next call of
87  * ucol_prev or ucol_next, the first or last collation order will be returned.
88  * If a change of direction is done without a ucol_reset, the result is
89  * undefined.
90  * The result of a forward iterate (ucol_next) and reversed result of the
91  * backward iterate (ucol_prev) on the same string are equivalent, if
92  * collation orders with the value UCOL_IGNORABLE are ignored.
93  * Character based on the comparison level of the collator.  A collation order
94  * consists of primary order, secondary order and tertiary order.  The data
95  * type of the collation order is <strong>t_int32</strong>.
