/**
* The CollationElementIterator class is used as an iterator to walk through
* each character of an international string. Use the iterator to return the
* ordering priority of the positioned character. The ordering priority of a
* character, which we refer to as a key, defines how a character is collated in
* the given collation object.
* For example, consider the following in Spanish:
* <pre>
* "ca" -> the first key is key('c') and second key is key('a').
* "cha" -> the first key is key('ch') and second key is key('a').</pre>
* And in German,
* <pre> \htmlonly "&#x00E6;b"-> the first key is key('a'), the second key is key('e'), and
* the third key is key('b'). \endhtmlonly </pre>
* The key of a character, is an integer composed of primary order(short),
* secondary order(char), and tertiary order(char). Java strictly defines the
* size and signedness of its primitive data types. Therefore, the static
* functions primaryOrder(), secondaryOrder(), and tertiaryOrder() return
* int32_t to ensure the correctness of the key value.
* <p>Example of the iterator usage: (without error checking)
* <pre>
* \code
* void CollationElementIterator_Example()
* {
* UnicodeString str = "This is a test";
* UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
* RuleBasedCollator* rbc =
* (RuleBasedCollator*) RuleBasedCollator::createInstance(success);
* CollationElementIterator* c =
* rbc->createCollationElementIterator( str );
* int32_t order = c->next(success);
* c->reset();
* order = c->previous(success);
* delete c;
* delete rbc;
* }
* \endcode
* </pre>
* <p>
* CollationElementIterator::next returns the collation order of the next
* character based on the comparison level of the collator.
* CollationElementIterator::previous returns the collation order of the
* previous character based on the comparison level of the collator.
* The Collation Element Iterator moves only in one direction between calls to
* CollationElementIterator::reset. That is, CollationElementIterator::next()
* and CollationElementIterator::previous can not be inter-used. Whenever
* CollationElementIterator::previous is to be called after
* CollationElementIterator::next() or vice versa,
* CollationElementIterator::reset has to be called first to reset the status,
* shifting pointers to either the end or the start of the string. Hence at the
* next call of CollationElementIterator::previous or
* CollationElementIterator::next(), the first or last collation order will be
* returned.
* If a change of direction is done without a CollationElementIterator::reset(),
* the result is undefined.
* The result of a forward iterate (CollationElementIterator::next) and
* reversed result of the backward iterate (CollationElementIterator::previous)
* on the same string are equivalent, if collation orders with the value
* UCOL_IGNORABLE are ignored.
* Character based on the comparison level of the collator. A collation order
* consists of primary order, secondary order and tertiary order. The data
* type of the collation order is <strong>t_int32</strong>.
*
* Note, CollationElementIterator should not be subclassed.
