/**
 * {@icuenhanced java.util.ResourceBundle}.{@icu _usage_}
 *
 * <p>A class representing a collection of resource information pertaining to a given
 * locale. A resource bundle provides a way of accessing locale- specific information in a
 * data file. You create a resource bundle that manages the resources for a given locale
 * and then ask it for individual resources.
 *
 * <p>In ResourceBundle, an object is created and the sub-items are fetched using the
 * getString and getObject methods.  In UResourceBundle, each individual element of a
 * resource is a resource by itself.
 *
 * <p>Resource bundles in ICU are currently defined using text files that conform to the
 * following <a
 * href="http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/icuhtml/trunk/design/bnf_rb.txt">BNF
 * definition</a>.  More on resource bundle concepts and syntax can be found in the <a
 * href="http://www.icu-project.org/userguide/ResourceManagement.html">Users Guide</a>.
 *
 * <p>The packaging of ICU *.res files can be of two types
 * ICU4C:
 * <pre>
 *       root.res
 *         |
 *      --------
 *     |        |
 *   fr.res  en.res
 *     |
 *   --------
 *  |        |
 * fr_CA.res fr_FR.res
 * </pre>
 * JAVA/JDK:
 * <pre>
 *    LocaleElements.res
 *         |
 *      -------------------
 *     |                   |
 * LocaleElements_fr.res  LocaleElements_en.res
 *     |
 *   ---------------------------
 *  |                            |
 * LocaleElements_fr_CA.res   LocaleElements_fr_FR.res
 * </pre>
 *
 * Depending on the organization of your resources, the syntax to getBundleInstance will
 * change.  To open ICU style organization use:
 *
 * <pre>
 *      UResourceBundle bundle =
 *          UResourceBundle.getBundleInstance("com/mycompany/resources",
 *                                            "en_US", myClassLoader);
 * </pre>
 * To open Java/JDK style organization use:
 * <pre>
 *      UResourceBundle bundle =
 *          UResourceBundle.getBundleInstance("com.mycompany.resources.LocaleElements",
 *                                            "en_US", myClassLoader);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>Note: Please use pass a class loader for loading non-ICU resources. Java security does not
 * allow loading of resources across jar files. You must provide your class loader
 * to load the resources
