28/**
29 * <code>RuleBasedTransliterator</code> is a transliterator
30 * that reads a set of rules in order to determine how to perform
31 * translations. Rule sets are stored in resource bundles indexed by
32 * name. Rules within a rule set are separated by semicolons (';').
33 * To include a literal semicolon, prefix it with a backslash ('\').
34 * Whitespace, as defined by <code>Character.isWhitespace()</code>,
35 * is ignored. If the first non-blank character on a line is '#',
36 * the entire line is ignored as a comment. </p>
37 *
38 * <p>Each set of rules consists of two groups, one forward, and one
39 * reverse. This is a convention that is not enforced; rules for one
40 * direction may be omitted, with the result that translations in
41 * that direction will not modify the source text. In addition,
42 * bidirectional forward-reverse rules may be specified for
43 * symmetrical transformations.</p>
44 *
45 * <p><b>Rule syntax</b> </p>
46 *
47 * <p>Rule statements take one of the following forms: </p>
48 *
49 * <dl>
50 * <dt><code>$alefmadda=\u0622;</code></dt>
51 * <dd><strong>Variable definition.</strong> The name on the
52 * left is assigned the text on the right. In this example,
53 * after this statement, instances of the left hand name,
54 * &quot;<code>$alefmadda</code>&quot;, will be replaced by
55 * the Unicode character U+0622. Variable names must begin
56 * with a letter and consist only of letters, digits, and
57 * underscores. Case is significant. Duplicate names cause
58 * an exception to be thrown, that is, variables cannot be
59 * redefined. The right hand side may contain well-formed
60 * text of any length, including no text at all (&quot;<code>$empty=;</code>&quot;).
61 * The right hand side may contain embedded <code>UnicodeSet</code>
62 * patterns, for example, &quot;<code>$softvowel=[eiyEIY]</code>&quot;.</dd>
63 * <dd>&nbsp;</dd>
64 * <dt><code>ai&gt;$alefmadda;</code></dt>
65 * <dd><strong>Forward translation rule.</strong> This rule
66 * states that the string on the left will be changed to the
67 * string on the right when performing forward
68 * transliteration.</dd>
69 * <dt>&nbsp;</dt>
70 * <dt><code>ai<$alefmadda;</code></dt>
71 * <dd><strong>Reverse translation rule.</strong> This rule
72 * states that the string on the right will be changed to
73 * the string on the left when performing reverse
74 * transliteration.</dd>
75 * </dl>
76 *
77 * <dl>
78 * <dt><code>ai<>$alefmadda;</code></dt>
79 * <dd><strong>Bidirectional translation rule.</strong> This
80 * rule states that the string on the right will be changed
81 * to the string on the left when performing forward
82 * transliteration, and vice versa when performing reverse
83 * transliteration.</dd>
84 * </dl>
85 *
86 * <p>Translation rules consist of a <em>match pattern</em> and an <em>output
87 * string</em>. The match pattern consists of literal characters,
88 * optionally preceded by context, and optionally followed by
89 * context. Context characters, like literal pattern characters,
90 * must be matched in the text being transliterated. However, unlike
91 * literal pattern characters, they are not replaced by the output
92 * text. For example, the pattern &quot;<code>abc{def}</code>&quot;
93 * indicates the characters &quot;<code>def</code>&quot; must be
94 * preceded by &quot;<code>abc</code>&quot; for a successful match.
95 * If there is a successful match, &quot;<code>def</code>&quot; will
96 * be replaced, but not &quot;<code>abc</code>&quot;. The final '<code>}</code>'
97 * is optional, so &quot;<code>abc{def</code>&quot; is equivalent to
98 * &quot;<code>abc{def}</code>&quot;. Another example is &quot;<code>{123}456</code>&quot;
99 * (or &quot;<code>123}456</code>&quot;) in which the literal
100 * pattern &quot;<code>123</code>&quot; must be followed by &quot;<code>456</code>&quot;.
101 * </p>
102 *
103 * <p>The output string of a forward or reverse rule consists of
104 * characters to replace the literal pattern characters. If the
105 * output string contains the character '<code>|</code>', this is
106 * taken to indicate the location of the <em>cursor</em> after
107 * replacement. The cursor is the point in the text at which the
108 * next replacement, if any, will be applied. The cursor is usually
109 * placed within the replacement text; however, it can actually be
110 * placed into the precending or following context by using the
111 * special character '<code>@</code>'. Examples:</p>
112 *
113 * <blockquote>
114 * <p><code>a {foo} z &gt; | @ bar; # foo -&gt; bar, move cursor
115 * before a<br>
116 * {foo} xyz &gt; bar @@|; #&nbsp;foo -&gt; bar, cursor between
117 * y and z</code></p>
118 * </blockquote>
119 *
120 * <p><b>UnicodeSet</b></p>
121 *
122 * <p><code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may appear anywhere that
123 * makes sense. They may appear in variable definitions.
124 * Contrariwise, <code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may themselves
125 * contain variable references, such as &quot;<code>$a=[a-z];$not_a=[^$a]</code>&quot;,
126 * or &quot;<code>$range=a-z;$ll=[$range]</code>&quot;.</p>
127 *
128 * <p><code>UnicodeSet</code> patterns may also be embedded directly
129 * into rule strings. Thus, the following two rules are equivalent:</p>
130 *
131 * <blockquote>
132 * <p><code>$vowel=[aeiou]; $vowel&gt;'*'; # One way to do this<br>
133 * [aeiou]&gt;'*';
134 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;#
135 * Another way</code></p>
136 * </blockquote>
137 *
138 * <p>See {@link UnicodeSet} for more documentation and examples.</p>
139 *
140 * <p><b>Segments</b></p>
141 *
142 * <p>Segments of the input string can be matched and copied to the
143 * output string. This makes certain sets of rules simpler and more
144 * general, and makes reordering possible. For example:</p>
145 *
146 * <blockquote>
147 * <p><code>([a-z]) &gt; $1 $1;
148 * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;#
149 * double lowercase letters<br>
150 * ([:Lu:]) ([:Ll:]) &gt; $2 $1; # reverse order of Lu-Ll pairs</code></p>
151 * </blockquote>
152 *
153 * <p>The segment of the input string to be copied is delimited by
154 * &quot;<code>(</code>&quot; and &quot;<code>)</code>&quot;. Up to
155 * nine segments may be defined. Segments may not overlap. In the
156 * output string, &quot;<code>$1</code>&quot; through &quot;<code>$9</code>&quot;
157 * represent the input string segments, in left-to-right order of
158 * definition.</p>
159 *
160 * <p><b>Anchors</b></p>
161 *
162 * <p>Patterns can be anchored to the beginning or the end of the text. This is done with the
163 * special characters '<code>^</code>' and '<code>$</code>'. For example:</p>
164 *
165 * <blockquote>
166 * <p><code>^ a&nbsp;&nbsp; &gt; 'BEG_A'; &nbsp;&nbsp;# match 'a' at start of text<br>
167 * &nbsp; a&nbsp;&nbsp; &gt; 'A';&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; # match other instances
168 * of 'a'<br>
169 * &nbsp; z $ &gt; 'END_Z'; &nbsp;&nbsp;# match 'z' at end of text<br>
170 * &nbsp; z&nbsp;&nbsp; &gt; 'Z';&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; # match other instances
171 * of 'z'</code></p>
172 * </blockquote>
173 *
174 * <p>It is also possible to match the beginning or the end of the text using a <code>UnicodeSet</code>.
175 * This is done by including a virtual anchor character '<code>$</code>' at the end of the
176 * set pattern. Although this is usually the match chafacter for the end anchor, the set will
177 * match either the beginning or the end of the text, depending on its placement. For
178 * example:</p>
179 *
180 * <blockquote>
181 * <p><code>$x = [a-z$]; &nbsp;&nbsp;# match 'a' through 'z' OR anchor<br>
182 * $x 1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &gt; 2;&nbsp;&nbsp; # match '1' after a-z or at the start<br>
183 * &nbsp;&nbsp; 3 $x &gt; 4; &nbsp;&nbsp;# match '3' before a-z or at the end</code></p>
184 * </blockquote>
185 *
186 * <p><b>Example</b> </p>
187 *
188 * <p>The following example rules illustrate many of the features of
189 * the rule language. </p>
190 *
191 * <table border="0" cellpadding="4">
192 * <tr>
193 * <td valign="top">Rule 1.</td>
194 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>abc{def}&gt;x|y</code></td>
195 * </tr>
196 * <tr>
197 * <td valign="top">Rule 2.</td>
198 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>xyz&gt;r</code></td>
199 * </tr>
200 * <tr>
201 * <td valign="top">Rule 3.</td>
202 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>yz&gt;q</code></td>
203 * </tr>
204 * </table>
205 *
206 * <p>Applying these rules to the string &quot;<code>adefabcdefz</code>&quot;
207 * yields the following results: </p>
208 *
209 * <table border="0" cellpadding="4">
210 * <tr>
211 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>|adefabcdefz</code></td>
212 * <td valign="top">Initial state, no rules match. Advance
213 * cursor.</td>
214 * </tr>
215 * <tr>
216 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>a|defabcdefz</code></td>
217 * <td valign="top">Still no match. Rule 1 does not match
218 * because the preceding context is not present.</td>
219 * </tr>
220 * <tr>
221 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>ad|efabcdefz</code></td>
222 * <td valign="top">Still no match. Keep advancing until
223 * there is a match...</td>
224 * </tr>
225 * <tr>
226 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>ade|fabcdefz</code></td>
227 * <td valign="top">...</td>
228 * </tr>
229 * <tr>
230 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adef|abcdefz</code></td>
231 * <td valign="top">...</td>
232 * </tr>
233 * <tr>
234 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adefa|bcdefz</code></td>
235 * <td valign="top">...</td>
236 * </tr>
237 * <tr>
238 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adefab|cdefz</code></td>
239 * <td valign="top">...</td>
240 * </tr>
241 * <tr>
242 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adefabc|defz</code></td>
243 * <td valign="top">Rule 1 matches; replace &quot;<code>def</code>&quot;
244 * with &quot;<code>xy</code>&quot; and back up the cursor
245 * to before the '<code>y</code>'.</td>
246 * </tr>
247 * <tr>
248 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adefabcx|yz</code></td>
249 * <td valign="top">Although &quot;<code>xyz</code>&quot; is
250 * present, rule 2 does not match because the cursor is
251 * before the '<code>y</code>', not before the '<code>x</code>'.
252 * Rule 3 does match. Replace &quot;<code>yz</code>&quot;
253 * with &quot;<code>q</code>&quot;.</td>
254 * </tr>
255 * <tr>
256 * <td valign="top" nowrap><code>adefabcxq|</code></td>
257 * <td valign="top">The cursor is at the end;
258 * transliteration is complete.</td>
259 * </tr>
260 * </table>
261 *
262 * <p>The order of rules is significant. If multiple rules may match
263 * at some point, the first matching rule is applied. </p>
264 *
265 * <p>Forward and reverse rules may have an empty output string.
266 * Otherwise, an empty left or right hand side of any statement is a
267 * syntax error. </p>
268 *
269 * <p>Single quotes are used to quote any character other than a
270 * digit or letter. To specify a single quote itself, inside or
271 * outside of quotes, use two single quotes in a row. For example,
272 * the rule &quot;<code>'&gt;'&gt;o''clock</code>&quot; changes the
273 * string &quot;<code>&gt;</code>&quot; to the string &quot;<code>o'clock</code>&quot;.
274 * </p>
275 *
276 * <p><b>Notes</b> </p>
277 *
278 * <p>While a RuleBasedTransliterator is being built, it checks that
279 * the rules are added in proper order. For example, if the rule
280 * &quot;a&gt;x&quot; is followed by the rule &quot;ab&gt;y&quot;,
281 * then the second rule will throw an exception. The reason is that
282 * the second rule can never be triggered, since the first rule
283 * always matches anything it matches. In other words, the first
284 * rule <em>masks</em> the second rule. </p>
