+/**
+ * \file
+ * \brief C API: StringSearch
+ *
+ * C Apis for an engine that provides language-sensitive text searching based 
+ * on the comparison rules defined in a <tt>UCollator</tt> data struct,
+ * see <tt>ucol.h</tt>. This ensures that language eccentricity can be 
+ * handled, e.g. for the German collator, characters &szlig; and SS will be matched 
+ * if case is chosen to be ignored. 
+ * See the <a href="http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/icuhtml/trunk/design/collation/ICU_collation_design.htm">
+ * "ICU Collation Design Document"</a> for more information.
+ * <p> 
+ * The implementation may use a linear search or a modified form of the Boyer-Moore
+ * search; for more information on the latter see 
+ * <a href="http://icu-project.org/docs/papers/efficient_text_searching_in_java.html">
+ * "Efficient Text Searching in Java"</a>, published in <i>Java Report</i> 
+ * in February, 1999.
+ * <p>
+ * There are 2 match options for selection:<br>
+ * Let S' be the sub-string of a text string S between the offsets start and 
+ * end <start, end>.
+ * <br>
+ * A pattern string P matches a text string S at the offsets <start, end> 
+ * if
+ * <pre> 
+ * option 1. Some canonical equivalent of P matches some canonical equivalent 
+ *           of S'
+ * option 2. P matches S' and if P starts or ends with a combining mark, 
+ *           there exists no non-ignorable combining mark before or after S' 
+ *           in S respectively. 
+ * </pre>
+ * Option 2. will be the default.
+ * <p>
+ * This search has APIs similar to that of other text iteration mechanisms 
+ * such as the break iterators in <tt>ubrk.h</tt>. Using these 
+ * APIs, it is easy to scan through text looking for all occurances of 
+ * a given pattern. This search iterator allows changing of direction by 
+ * calling a <tt>reset</tt> followed by a <tt>next</tt> or <tt>previous</tt>. 
+ * Though a direction change can occur without calling <tt>reset</tt> first,  
+ * this operation comes with some speed penalty.
+ * Generally, match results in the forward direction will match the result 
+ * matches in the backwards direction in the reverse order
+ * <p>
+ * <tt>usearch.h</tt> provides APIs to specify the starting position 
+ * within the text string to be searched, e.g. <tt>usearch_setOffset</tt>,
+ * <tt>usearch_preceding</tt> and <tt>usearch_following</tt>. Since the 
+ * starting position will be set as it is specified, please take note that 
+ * there are some dangerous positions which the search may render incorrect 
+ * results:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li> The midst of a substring that requires normalization.
+ * <li> If the following match is to be found, the position should not be the
+ *      second character which requires to be swapped with the preceding 
+ *      character. Vice versa, if the preceding match is to be found, 
+ *      position to search from should not be the first character which 
+ *      requires to be swapped with the next character. E.g certain Thai and
+ *      Lao characters require swapping.
+ * <li> If a following pattern match is to be found, any position within a 
+ *      contracting sequence except the first will fail. Vice versa if a 
+ *      preceding pattern match is to be found, a invalid starting point 
+ *      would be any character within a contracting sequence except the last.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * A breakiterator can be used if only matches at logical breaks are desired.
+ * Using a breakiterator will only give you results that exactly matches the
+ * boundaries given by the breakiterator. For instance the pattern "e" will
+ * not be found in the string "\u00e9" if a character break iterator is used.
+ * <p>
+ * Options are provided to handle overlapping matches. 
+ * E.g. In English, overlapping matches produces the result 0 and 2 
+ * for the pattern "abab" in the text "ababab", where else mutually 
+ * exclusive matches only produce the result of 0.
+ * <p>
+ * Options are also provided to implement "asymmetric search" as described in
+ * <a href="http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Asymmetric_Search">
+ * UTS #10 Unicode Collation Algorithm</a>, specifically the USearchAttribute
+ * USEARCH_ELEMENT_COMPARISON and its values.
+ * <p>
+ * Though collator attributes will be taken into consideration while 
+ * performing matches, there are no APIs here for setting and getting the 
+ * attributes. These attributes can be set by getting the collator
+ * from <tt>usearch_getCollator</tt> and using the APIs in <tt>ucol.h</tt>.
+ * Lastly to update String Search to the new collator attributes, 
+ * usearch_reset() has to be called.
+ * <p> 
+ * Restriction: <br>
+ * Currently there are no composite characters that consists of a
+ * character with combining class > 0 before a character with combining 
+ * class == 0. However, if such a character exists in the future, the 
+ * search mechanism does not guarantee the results for option 1.
+ * 
+ * <p>
+ * Example of use:<br>
+ * <pre><code>
+ * char *tgtstr = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy fox";
+ * char *patstr = "fox";
+ * UChar target[64];
+ * UChar pattern[16];
+ * UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
+ * u_uastrcpy(target, tgtstr);
+ * u_uastrcpy(pattern, patstr);
+ *
+ * UStringSearch *search = usearch_open(pattern, -1, target, -1, "en_US", 
+ *                                  NULL, &status);
+ * if (U_SUCCESS(status)) {
+ *     for (int pos = usearch_first(search, &status); 
+ *          pos != USEARCH_DONE; 
+ *          pos = usearch_next(search, &status))
+ *     {
+ *         printf("Found match at %d pos, length is %d\n", pos, 
+ *                                        usearch_getMatchLength(search));
+ *     }
+ * }
+ *
+ * usearch_close(search);
+ * </code></pre>
