/**
 * AlphabeticIndex supports the creation of a UI index appropriate for a given language.
 * It can support either direct use, or use with a client that doesn't support localized collation.
 * The following is an example of what an index might look like in a UI:
 *
 * <pre>
 *  <b>... A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z  ...</b>
 *
 *  <b>A</b>
 *     Addison
 *     Albertson
 *     Azensky
 *  <b>B</b>
 *     Baecker
 *  ...
 * </pre>
 *
 * The class can generate a list of labels for use as a UI "index", that is, a list of
 * clickable characters (or character sequences) that allow the user to see a segment
 * (bucket) of a larger "target" list. That is, each label corresponds to a bucket in
 * the target list, where everything in the bucket is greater than or equal to the character
 * (according to the locale's collation). Strings can be added to the index;
 * they will be in sorted order in the right bucket.</p>
 * <p>
 * The class also supports having buckets for strings before the first (underflow),
 * after the last (overflow), and between scripts (inflow). For example, if the index
 * is constructed with labels for Russian and English, Greek characters would fall
 * into an inflow bucket between the other two scripts.</p>
 *
 * <p><em>Note:</em> If you expect to have a lot of ASCII or Latin characters
 * as well as characters from the user's language,
 * then it is a good idea to call addLabels(ULocale.English).</p>
 *
 * <h2>Direct Use</h2>
 * <p>The following shows an example of building an index directly.
 *  The "show..." methods below are just to illustrate usage.
 * 
 * <pre>
 * // Create a simple index where the values for the strings are Integers, and add the strings
 * 
 * AlphabeticIndex&lt;Integer&gt; index = new AlphabeticIndex&lt;Integer&gt;(desiredLocale).addLabels(additionalLocale);
 * int counter = 0;
 * for (String item : test) {
 *     index.addRecord(item, counter++); 
 * }
 * ...
 * // Show index at top. We could skip or gray out empty buckets
 * 
 * for (AlphabeticIndex.Bucket&lt;Integer&gt; bucket : index) {
 *     if (showAll || bucket.size() != 0) {
 *         showLabelAtTop(UI, bucket.getLabel());
 *     }
 * }
 *  ...
 * // Show the buckets with their contents, skipping empty buckets
 * 
 * for (AlphabeticIndex.Bucket&lt;Integer&gt; bucket : index) {
 *     if (bucket.size() != 0) {
 *         showLabelInList(UI, bucket.getLabel());
 *         for (AlphabeticIndex.Record&lt;Integer&gt; item : bucket) {
 *             showIndexedItem(UI, item.getName(), item.getData());
 *         }
 * </pre>
 *
 * The caller can build different UIs using this class.
 * For example, an index character could be omitted or grayed-out
 * if its bucket is empty. Small buckets could also be combined based on size, such as:
 *
 * <pre>
 * <b>... A-F G-N O-Z ...</b>
 * </pre>
 *
 * <h2>Client Support</h2>
 * <p>Callers can also use the {@link AlphabeticIndex.ImmutableIndex}, or the AlphabeticIndex itself,
 * to support sorting on a client that doesn't support AlphabeticIndex functionality.
 *
 * <p>The ImmutableIndex is both immutable and thread-safe.
 * The corresponding AlphabeticIndex methods are not thread-safe because
 * they "lazily" build the index buckets.
 * <ul>
 * <li>ImmutableIndex.getBucket(index) provides random access to all
 *     buckets and their labels and label types.
 * <li>AlphabeticIndex.getBucketLabels() or the bucket iterator on either class
 *     can be used to get a list of the labels,
 *     such as "...", "A", "B",..., and send that list to the client.
 * <li>When the client has a new name, it sends that name to the server.
 * The server needs to call the following methods,
 * and communicate the bucketIndex and collationKey back to the client.
 *
 * <pre>
 * int bucketIndex = index.getBucketIndex(name);
 * String label = immutableIndex.getBucket(bucketIndex).getLabel();  // optional
 * RawCollationKey collationKey = collator.getRawCollationKey(name, null);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <li>The client would put the name (and associated information) into its bucket for bucketIndex. The collationKey is a
 * sequence of bytes that can be compared with a binary compare, and produce the right localized result.</li>
 * </ul>
