/**
 * <p>A <code>CollationKey</code> represents a <code>String</code>
 * under the rules of a specific <code>Collator</code>
 * object. Comparing two <code>CollationKey</code>s returns the
 * relative order of the <code>String</code>s they represent.</p>
 *
 * <p>Since the rule set of <code>Collator</code>s can differ, the
 * sort orders of the same string under two different
 * <code>Collator</code>s might differ.  Hence comparing
 * <code>CollationKey</code>s generated from different
 * <code>Collator</code>s can give incorrect results.</p>
 *
 * <p>Both the method
 * <code>CollationKey.compareTo(CollationKey)</code> and the method
 * <code>Collator.compare(String, String)</code> compare two strings
 * and returns their relative order.  The performance characterictics
 * of these two approaches can differ.</p>
 *
 * <p>During the construction of a <code>CollationKey</code>, the
 * entire source string is examined and processed into a series of
 * bits terminated by a null, that are stored in the <code>CollationKey</code>. 
 * When <code>CollationKey.compareTo(CollationKey)</code> executes, it
 * performs bitwise comparison on the bit sequences.  This can incurs
 * startup cost when creating the <code>CollationKey</code>, but once
 * the key is created, binary comparisons are fast.  This approach is
 * recommended when the same strings are to be compared over and over
 * again.</p>
 *
 * <p>On the other hand, implementations of
 * <code>Collator.compare(String, String)</code> can examine and
 * process the strings only until the first characters differing in
 * order.  This approach is recommended if the strings are to be
 * compared only once.</p>
 * 
 * <p>More information about the composition of the bit sequence can
 * be found in the 
 * <a href="http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/userguide/Collate_ServiceArchitecture.html">
 * user guide</a>.</p>
 *
 * <p>The following example shows how <code>CollationKey</code>s can be used
 * to sort a list of <code>String</code>s.</p>
 * <blockquote>
 * <pre>
 * // Create an array of CollationKeys for the Strings to be sorted.
 * Collator myCollator = Collator.getInstance();
 * CollationKey[] keys = new CollationKey[3];
 * keys[0] = myCollator.getCollationKey("Tom");
 * keys[1] = myCollator.getCollationKey("Dick");
 * keys[2] = myCollator.getCollationKey("Harry");
 * sort( keys );
 * <br>
 * //...
 * <br>
 * // Inside body of sort routine, compare keys this way
 * if( keys[i].compareTo( keys[j] ) > 0 )
 *    // swap keys[i] and keys[j]
 * <br>
 * //...
 * <br>
 * // Finally, when we've returned from sort.
 * System.out.println( keys[0].getSourceString() );
 * System.out.println( keys[1].getSourceString() );
 * System.out.println( keys[2].getSourceString() );
 * </pre>
