This
class is a concrete subclass of the abstract
Collator class. It performs collations using a
table of rules that are specified in textual form. Most applications
do not use this class directly; instead they call
Collator.getInstance( ) to obtain a
Collator object (typically a
RuleBasedCollator object) that implements the
default collation order for a specified or default locale. You should
need to use this class only if you are collating strings for a locale
that is not supported by default or if you need to implement a highly
customized collation order.
