23 * \brief C API: Collator
24 *
25 * <h2> Collator C API </h2>
26 *
27 * The C API for Collator performs locale-sensitive
28 * string comparison. You use this service to build
29 * searching and sorting routines for natural language text.
30 * <em>Important: </em>The ICU collation service has been reimplemented
31 * in order to achieve better performance and UCA compliance.
32 * For details, see the
33 * <a href="http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/icuhtml/trunk/design/collati on/ICU_collation_design.htm">
34 * collation design document</a>.
35 * <p>
36 * For more information about the collation service see
37 * <a href="http://icu-project.org/userguide/Collate_Intro.html">the users guide </a>.
38 * <p>
39 * Collation service provides correct sorting orders for most locales supported in ICU.
40 * If specific data for a locale is not available, the orders eventually falls b ack
41 * to the <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr10/">UCA sort order< /a>.
42 * <p>
43 * Sort ordering may be customized by providing your own set of rules. For more on
44 * this subject see the
45 * <a href="http://icu-project.org/userguide/Collate_Customization.html">
46 * Collation customization</a> section of the users guide.
