+/**
+ * \file
+ * \brief C API: Abstract Unicode Text API
+ *
+ * The Text Access API provides a means to allow text that is stored in alternative
+ * formats to work with ICU services.  ICU normally operates on text that is
+ * stored in UTF-16 format, in (UChar *) arrays for the C APIs or as type
+ * UnicodeString for C++ APIs.
+ *
+ * ICU Text Access allows other formats, such as UTF-8 or non-contiguous
+ * UTF-16 strings, to be placed in a UText wrapper and then passed to ICU services.
+ *
+ * There are three general classes of usage for UText:
+ *
+ *     Application Level Use.  This is the simplest usage - applications would
+ *     use one of the utext_open() functions on their input text, and pass
+ *     the resulting UText to the desired ICU service.
+ *
+ *     Second is usage in ICU Services, such as break iteration, that will need to
+ *     operate on input presented to them as a UText.  These implementations
+ *     will need to use the iteration and related UText functions to gain
+ *     access to the actual text.
+ *
+ *     The third class of UText users are "text providers."  These are the
+ *     UText implementations for the various text storage formats.  An application
+ *     or system with a unique text storage format can implement a set of
+ *     UText provider functions for that format, which will then allow
+ *     ICU services to operate on that format.
+ *
+ *
+ * <em>Iterating over text</em>
+ *
+ * Here is sample code for a forward iteration over the contents of a UText
+ *
+ * \code
+ *    UChar32  c;
+ *    UText    *ut = whatever();
+ *
+ *    for (c=utext_next32From(ut, 0); c>=0; c=utext_next32(ut)) {
+ *       // do whatever with the codepoint c here.
+ *    }
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * And here is similar code to iterate in the reverse direction, from the end
+ * of the text towards the beginning.
+ *
+ * \code
+ *    UChar32  c;
+ *    UText    *ut = whatever();
+ *    int      textLength = utext_nativeLength(ut);
+ *    for (c=utext_previous32From(ut, textLength); c>=0; c=utext_previous32(ut)) {
+ *       // do whatever with the codepoint c here.
+ *    }
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * <em>Characters and Indexing</em>
+ *
+ * Indexing into text by UText functions is nearly always in terms of the native
+ * indexing of the underlying text storage.  The storage format could be UTF-8
+ * or UTF-32, for example.  When coding to the UText access API, no assumptions
+ * can be made regarding the size of characters, or how far an index
+ * may move when iterating between characters.
+ *
+ * All indices supplied to UText functions are pinned to the length of the
+ * text.  An out-of-bounds index is not considered to be an error, but is
+ * adjusted to be in the range  0 <= index <= length of input text.
+ *
+ *
+ * When an index position is returned from a UText function, it will be
+ * a native index to the underlying text.  In the case of multi-unit characters,
+ * it will  always refer to the first position of the character,
+ * never to the interior.  This is essentially the same thing as saying that
+ * a returned index will always point to a boundary between characters.
+ *
+ * When a native index is supplied to a UText function, all indices that
+ * refer to any part of a multi-unit character representation are considered
+ * to be equivalent.  In the case of multi-unit characters, an incoming index
+ * will be logically normalized to refer to the start of the character.
+ * 
+ * It is possible to test whether a native index is on a code point boundary
+ * by doing a utext_setNativeIndex() followed by a utext_getNativeIndex().
+ * If the index is returned unchanged, it was on a code point boundary.  If
+ * an adjusted index is returned, the original index referred to the
+ * interior of a character.
+ *
+ * <em>Conventions for calling UText functions</em>
+ *
+ * Most UText access functions have as their first parameter a (UText *) pointer,
+ * which specifies the UText to be used.  Unless otherwise noted, the
+ * pointer must refer to a valid, open UText.  Attempting to
+ * use a closed UText or passing a NULL pointer is a programming error and
+ * will produce undefined results or NULL pointer exceptions.
+ * 
+ * The UText_Open family of functions can either open an existing (closed)
+ * UText, or heap allocate a new UText.  Here is sample code for creating
+ * a stack-allocated UText.
+ *
+ * \code
+ *    char     *s = whatever();  // A utf-8 string 
+ *    U_ErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
+ *    UText    ut = UTEXT_INITIALIZER;
+ *    utext_openUTF8(ut, s, -1, &status);
+ *    if (U_FAILURE(status)) {
+ *        // error handling
+ *    } else {
+ *        // work with the UText
+ *    }
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * Any existing UText passed to an open function _must_ have been initialized, 
+ * either by the UTEXT_INITIALIZER, or by having been originally heap-allocated
+ * by an open function.  Passing NULL will cause the open function to
+ * heap-allocate and fully initialize a new UText.
