- * \file
- * \brief  C++ API:  Regular Expressions
- *
- * <h2>Regular Expression API</h2>
- *
- * <p>The ICU API for processing regular expressions consists of two classes,
- *  <code>RegexPattern</code> and <code>RegexMatcher</code>.
- *  <code>RegexPattern</code> objects represent a pre-processed, or compiled
- *  regular expression.  They are created from a regular expression pattern string,
- *  and can be used to create <code>RegexMatcher</code> objects for the pattern.</p>
- *
- * <p>Class <code>RegexMatcher</code> bundles together a regular expression
- *  pattern and a target string to which the search pattern will be applied.
- *  <code>RegexMatcher</code> includes API for doing plain find or search
- *  operations, for search and replace operations, and for obtaining detailed
- *  information about bounds of a match. </p>
- *
- * <p>Note that by constructing <code>RegexMatcher</code> objects directly from regular
- * expression pattern strings application code can be simplified and the explicit
- * need for <code>RegexPattern</code> objects can usually be eliminated.
- * </p>
