| /** | |
| * The <code>Collator</code> class performs locale-sensitive string | |
| * comparison.<br> | |
| * You use this class to build searching and sorting routines for natural | |
| * language text. | |
| * <p> | |
| * <code>Collator</code> is an abstract base class. Subclasses implement | |
| * specific collation strategies. One subclass, | |
| * <code>RuleBasedCollator</code>, is currently provided and is applicable | |
| * to a wide set of languages. Other subclasses may be created to handle more | |
| * specialized needs. | |
| * <p> | |
| * Like other locale-sensitive classes, you can use the static factory method, | |
| * <code>createInstance</code>, to obtain the appropriate | |
| * <code>Collator</code> object for a given locale. You will only need to | |
| * look at the subclasses of <code>Collator</code> if you need to | |
| * understand the details of a particular collation strategy or if you need to | |
| * modify that strategy. | |
| * <p> | |
| * The following example shows how to compare two strings using the | |
| * <code>Collator</code> for the default locale. | |
| * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly | |
| * <pre> | |
| * \code | |
| * // Compare two strings in the default locale | |
| * UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; | |
| * Collator* myCollator = Collator::createInstance(success); | |
| * if (myCollator->compare("abc", "ABC") < 0) | |
| * cout << "abc is less than ABC" << endl; | |
| * else | |
| * cout << "abc is greater than or equal to ABC" << endl; | |
| * \endcode | |
| * </pre> | |
| * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly | |
| * <p> | |
| * You can set a <code>Collator</code>'s <em>strength</em> attribute to | |
| * determine the level of difference considered significant in comparisons. | |
| * Five strengths are provided: <code>PRIMARY</code>, <code>SECONDARY</code>, | |
| * <code>TERTIARY</code>, <code>QUATERNARY</code> and <code>IDENTICAL</code>. | |
| * The exact assignment of strengths to language features is locale dependent. | |
| * For example, in Czech, "e" and "f" are considered primary differences, | |
| * while "e" and "\u00EA" are secondary differences, "e" and "E" are tertiary | |
| * differences and "e" and "e" are identical. The following shows how both case | |
| * and accents could be ignored for US English. | |
| * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly | |
| * <pre> | |
| * \code | |
| * //Get the Collator for US English and set its strength to PRIMARY | |
| * UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR; | |
| * Collator* usCollator = Collator::createInstance(Locale::getUS(), success); | |
| * usCollator->setStrength(Collator::PRIMARY); | |
| * if (usCollator->compare("abc", "ABC") == 0) | |
| * cout << "'abc' and 'ABC' strings are equivalent with strength PRIMARY" << endl; | |
| * \endcode | |
| * </pre> | |
| * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly | |
| * | |
| * The <code>getSortKey</code> methods | |
| * convert a string to a series of bytes that can be compared bitwise against | |
| * other sort keys using <code>strcmp()</code>. Sort keys are written as | |
| * zero-terminated byte strings. | |
| * | |
| * Another set of APIs returns a <code>CollationKey</code> object that wraps | |
| * the sort key bytes instead of returning the bytes themselves. | |
| * </p> | |
| * <p> | |
| * <strong>Note:</strong> <code>Collator</code>s with different Locale, | |
| * and CollationStrength settings will return different sort | |
| * orders for the same set of strings. Locales have specific collation rules, | |
| * and the way in which secondary and tertiary differences are taken into | |
| * account, for example, will result in a different sorting order for same | |
| * strings. | |
