Collator C API

* * The C API for Collator performs locale-sensitive * string comparison. You use this service to build * searching and sorting routines for natural language text. * Important: The ICU collation service has been reimplemented * in order to achieve better performance and UCA compliance. * For details, see the * * collation design document. *

* For more information about the collation service see * the users guide. *

* Collation service provides correct sorting orders for most locales supported in ICU. * If specific data for a locale is not available, the orders eventually falls back * to the UCA sort order. *

* Sort ordering may be customized by providing your own set of rules. For more on * this subject see the * * Collation customization section of the users guide. *
