* The resource bundle file is a text (ASCII or Unicode) file with the format: *
* \code
* locale {
* tag1 {...}
* tag2 {...}
* }
* \endcode
*
* The tags are used to retrieve the data later. You may not have multiple instances of
* the same tag.
* * Four data types are supported. These are solitary strings, comma-delimited lists of * strings, 2-dimensional arrays of strings, and tagged lists of strings. *
* Note that all data is textual. Adjacent strings are merged by the low-level * tokenizer, so that the following effects occur: foo bar, baz // 2 elements, "foo * bar", and "baz" "foo" "bar", baz // 2 elements, "foobar", and "baz" Note that a * single intervening space is added between merged strings, unless they are both double * quoted. This extends to more than two strings in a row. *
* Whitespace is ignored, as in a C source file. *
* Solitary strings have the format: *
* \code
* Tag { Data }
* \endcode
*
* This is indistinguishable from a comma-delimited list with only one element, and in
* fact may be retrieved as such (as an array, or as element 0 or an array).
* * Comma-delimited lists have the format: *
* \code
* Tag { Data, Data, Data }
* \endcode
*
* Parsing is lenient; a final string, after the last element, is allowed.
* * Tagged lists have the format: *
* \code
* Tag { Subtag { Data } Subtag {Data} }
* \endcode
*
* Data is retrieved by specifying the subtag.
* * Two-dimensional arrays have the format: *
* \code
* TwoD {
* { r1c1, r1c2, ..., r1cm },
* { r2c1, r2c2, ..., r2cm },
* ...
* { rnc1, rnc2, ..., rncm }
* }
* \endcode
*
* where n is the number of rows, and m is the number of columns. Parsing is lenient (as
* in other data types). A final comma is always allowed after the last element; either
* the last string in a row, or the last row itself. Furthermore, since there is no
* ambiguity, the commas between the rows are entirely optional. (However, if a comma is
* present, there can only be one comma, no more.) It is possible to have zero columns,
* as follows:
*
* \code
* Odd { {} {} {} } // 3 x 0 array
* \endcode
*
* But it is impossible to have zero rows. The smallest array is thus a 1 x 0 array,
* which looks like this:
*
* \code
* Smallest { {} } // 1 x 0 array
* \endcode
*
* The array must be strictly rectangular; that is, each row must have the same number
* of elements.
* * This is an example for using a possible custom resource: *
* \code
* Locale currentLocale;
* UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* ResourceBundle myResources("MyResources", currentLocale, success );
*
* UnicodeString button1Title, button2Title;
* myResources.getString("OkKey", button1Title, success );
* myResources.getString("CancelKey", button2Title, success );
* \endcode
*

class U_COMMON_API ResourceBundle {
public:
/**
* Constructor
*
* @param path This is a full pathname in the platform-specific format for the
* directory containing the resource data files we want to load
* resources from. We use locale IDs to generate filenames, and the
* filenames have this string prepended to them before being passed
* to the C++ I/O functions. Therefore, this string must always end
* with a directory delimiter (whatever that is for the target OS)
* for this class to work correctly.
* @param locale This is the locale this resource bundle is for. To get resources
* for the French locale, for example, you would create a
* ResourceBundle passing Locale::FRENCH for the "locale" parameter,
* and all subsequent calls to that resource bundle will return
* resources that pertain to the French locale. If the caller doesn't
* pass a locale parameter, the default locale for the system (as
* returned by Locale::getDefault()) will be used.
* The UErrorCode& err parameter is used to return status information to the user. To
* check whether the construction succeeded or not, you should check the value of
* U_SUCCESS(err). If you wish more detailed information, you can check for
* informational error results which still indicate success. U_USING_FALLBACK_ERROR
* indicates that a fall back locale was used. For example, 'de_CH' was requested,
* but nothing was found there, so 'de' was used. U_USING_DEFAULT_ERROR indicates that
* the default locale data was used; neither the requested locale nor any of its
* fall back locales could be found.
