/**
 *
 * UnicodeSetIterator iterates over the contents of a UnicodeSet.  It
 * iterates over either code points or code point ranges.  After all
 * code points or ranges have been returned, it returns the
 * multicharacter strings of the UnicodeSet, if any.
 *
 * This class is not intended to be subclassed.  Consider any fields
 *  or methods declared as "protected" to be private.  The use of
 *  protected in this class is an artifact of history.
 *
 * <p>To iterate over code points and strings, use a loop like this:
 * <pre>
 * UnicodeSetIterator it(set);
 * while (it.next()) {
 *     processItem(it.getString());
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p>Each item in the set is accessed as a string.  Set elements
 *    consisting of single code points are returned as strings containing
 *    just the one code point.
 *
 * <p>To iterate over code point ranges, instead of individual code points,
 *    use a loop like this:
 * <pre>
 * UnicodeSetIterator it(set);
 * while (it.nextRange()) {
 *   if (it.isString()) {
 *     processString(it.getString());
 *   } else {
 *     processCodepointRange(it.getCodepoint(), it.getCodepointEnd());
 *   }
 * }
 * </pre>
