/**

 * Abstract class that defines an API for forward-only iteration

 * on text objects.

 * This is a minimal interface for iteration without random access

 * or backwards iteration. It is especially useful for wrapping

 * streams with converters into an object for collation or

 * normalization.

 *

 * <p>Characters can be accessed in two ways: as code units or as

 * code points.

 * Unicode code points are 21-bit integers and are the scalar values

 * of Unicode characters. ICU uses the type UChar32 for them.

 * Unicode code units are the storage units of a given

 * Unicode/UCS Transformation Format (a character encoding scheme).

 * With UTF-16, all code points can be represented with either one

 * or two code units ("surrogates").

 * String storage is typically based on code units, while properties

 * of characters are typically determined using code point values.

 * Some processes may be designed to work with sequences of code units,

 * or it may be known that all characters that are important to an

 * algorithm can be represented with single code units.

 * Other processes will need to use the code point access functions.</p>

 *

 * <p>ForwardCharacterIterator provides nextPostInc() to access

 * a code unit and advance an internal position into the text object,

 * similar to a <code>return text[position++]</code>.<br>

 * It provides next32PostInc() to access a code point and advance an internal

 * position.</p>

 *

 * <p>next32PostInc() assumes that the current position is that of

 * the beginning of a code point, i.e., of its first code unit.

 * After next32PostInc(), this will be true again.

 * In general, access to code units and code points in the same

 * iteration loop should not be mixed. In UTF-16, if the current position

 * is on a second code unit (Low Surrogate), then only that code unit

 * is returned even by next32PostInc().</p>

 *

 * <p>For iteration with either function, there are two ways to

 * check for the end of the iteration. When there are no more

 * characters in the text object:

 * <ul>

 * <li>The hasNext() function returns FALSE.</li>

 * <li>nextPostInc() and next32PostInc() return DONE

 *     when one attempts to read beyond the end of the text object.</li>

 * </ul>

 *

 * Example:

 * \code 

 * void function1(ForwardCharacterIterator &it) {

 *     UChar32 c;

 *     while(it.hasNext()) {

 *         c=it.next32PostInc();

 *         // use c

 *     }

 * }

 *

 * void function1(ForwardCharacterIterator &it) {

 *     UChar c;

 *     while((c=it.nextPostInc())!=ForwardCharacterIterator::DONE) {

 *         // use c

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * </p>

/**

 * Abstract class that defines an API for iteration

 * on text objects.

 * This is an interface for forward and backward iteration

 * and random access into a text object.

 *

 * <p>The API provides backward compatibility to the Java and older ICU

 * CharacterIterator classes but extends them significantly:

 * <ol>

 * <li>CharacterIterator is now a subclass of ForwardCharacterIterator.</li>

 * <li>While the old API functions provided forward iteration with

 *     "pre-increment" semantics, the new one also provides functions

 *     with "post-increment" semantics. They are more efficient and should

 *     be the preferred iterator functions for new implementations.

 *     The backward iteration always had "pre-decrement" semantics, which

 *     are efficient.</li>

 * <li>Just like ForwardCharacterIterator, it provides access to

 *     both code units and code points. Code point access versions are available

 *     for the old and the new iteration semantics.</li>

 * <li>There are new functions for setting and moving the current position

 *     without returning a character, for efficiency.</li>

 * </ol>

 *

 * See ForwardCharacterIterator for examples for using the new forward iteration

 * functions. For backward iteration, there is also a hasPrevious() function

 * that can be used analogously to hasNext().

 * The old functions work as before and are shown below.</p>

 *

 * <p>Examples for some of the new functions:</p>

 *

 * Forward iteration with hasNext():

 * \code

 * void forward1(CharacterIterator &it) {

 *     UChar32 c;

 *     for(it.setToStart(); it.hasNext();) {

 *         c=it.next32PostInc();

 *         // use c

 *     }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * Forward iteration more similar to loops with the old forward iteration,

 * showing a way to convert simple for() loops:

 * \code

 * void forward2(CharacterIterator &it) {

 *     UChar c;

 *     for(c=it.firstPostInc(); c!=CharacterIterator::DONE; c=it.nextPostInc()) {

 *          // use c

 *      }

 * }

 * \endcode

 * Backward iteration with setToEnd() and hasPrevious():

 * \code

 *  void backward1(CharacterIterator &it) {

 *      UChar32 c;

 *      for(it.setToEnd(); it.hasPrevious();) {

 *         c=it.previous32();

 *          // use c

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * Backward iteration with a more traditional for() loop:

 * \code

 * void backward2(CharacterIterator &it) {

 *     UChar c;

 *     for(c=it.last(); c!=CharacterIterator::DONE; c=it.previous()) {

 *         // use c

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 *

 * Example for random access:

 * \code

 *  void random(CharacterIterator &it) {

 *      // set to the third code point from the beginning

 *      it.move32(3, CharacterIterator::kStart);

 *      // get a code point from here without moving the position

 *      UChar32 c=it.current32();

 *      // get the position

 *      int32_t pos=it.getIndex();

 *      // get the previous code unit

 *      UChar u=it.previous();

 *      // move back one more code unit

 *      it.move(-1, CharacterIterator::kCurrent);

 *      // set the position back to where it was

 *      // and read the same code point c and move beyond it

 *      it.setIndex(pos);

 *      if(c!=it.next32PostInc()) {

 *          exit(1); // CharacterIterator inconsistent

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 *

 * <p>Examples, especially for the old API:</p>

 *

 * Function processing characters, in this example simple output

 * <pre>

 * \code

 *  void processChar( UChar c )

 *  {

 *      cout << " " << c;

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * </pre>

 * Traverse the text from start to finish

 * <pre> 

 * \code

 *  void traverseForward(CharacterIterator& iter)

 *  {

 *      for(UChar c = iter.first(); c != CharacterIterator.DONE; c = iter.next()) {

 *          processChar(c);

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * </pre>

 * Traverse the text backwards, from end to start

 * <pre>

 * \code

 *  void traverseBackward(CharacterIterator& iter)

 *  {

 *      for(UChar c = iter.last(); c != CharacterIterator.DONE; c = iter.previous()) {

 *          processChar(c);

 *      }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * </pre>

 * Traverse both forward and backward from a given position in the text. 

 * Calls to notBoundary() in this example represents some additional stopping criteria.

 * <pre>

 * \code

 * void traverseOut(CharacterIterator& iter, int32_t pos)

 * {

 *      UChar c;

 *      for (c = iter.setIndex(pos);

 *      c != CharacterIterator.DONE && (Unicode::isLetter(c) || Unicode::isDigit(c));

 *          c = iter.next()) {}

 *      int32_t end = iter.getIndex();

 *      for (c = iter.setIndex(pos);

 *          c != CharacterIterator.DONE && (Unicode::isLetter(c) || Unicode::isDigit(c));

 *          c = iter.previous()) {}

 *      int32_t start = iter.getIndex() + 1;

 *  

 *      cout << "start: " << start << " end: " << end << endl;

 *      for (c = iter.setIndex(start); iter.getIndex() < end; c = iter.next() ) {

 *          processChar(c);

 *     }

 *  }

 * \endcode

 * </pre>

 * Creating a StringCharacterIterator and calling the test functions

 * <pre>

 * \code

 *  void CharacterIterator_Example( void )

 *   {

 *       cout << endl << "===== CharacterIterator_Example: =====" << endl;

 *       UnicodeString text("Ein kleiner Satz.");

 *       StringCharacterIterator iterator(text);

 *       cout << "----- traverseForward: -----------" << endl;

 *       traverseForward( iterator );

 *       cout << endl << endl << "----- traverseBackward: ----------" << endl;

 *       traverseBackward( iterator );

 *       cout << endl << endl << "----- traverseOut: ---------------" << endl;

 *       traverseOut( iterator, 7 );

 *       cout << endl << endl << "-----" << endl;

 *   }

 * \endcode
