| /** |
| * Provides classes and interfaces for handling text, dates, numbers, |
| * and messages in a manner independent of natural languages. This |
| * means your main application or applet can be written to be |
| * language-independent, and it can rely upon separate, |
| * dynamically-linked localized resources. This allows the flexibility |
| * of adding localizations for new localizations at any time. |
| * |
| * <p>These classes are capable of formatting dates, numbers, and |
| * messages, parsing; searching and sorting strings; and iterating |
| * over characters, words, sentences, and line breaks. This package |
| * contains three main groups of classes and interfaces: |
| * |
| * <ul> |
| * <li>Classes for iteration over text |
| * <li>Classes for formatting and parsing |
| * <li>Classes for string collation |
| * </ul> |
| * |
| * @since 1.1 |
