17 * \file
18 * \brief C API: UFormattable is a thin wrapper for primitive types used for formatting and parsing.
19 *
20 * This is a C interface to the icu::Formattable class. Static functions on this class convert
21 * to and from this interface (via reinterpret_cast). Note that Formattables (and thus UFormattables)
22 * are mutable, and many operations (even getters) may actually modify the internal state. For this
23 * reason, UFormattables are not thread safe, and should not be shared between threads.
24 *
25 * See {@link unum_parseToUFormattable} for example code.
