     30  * \brief C API: Transliterator
     31  *
     32  * <h2> Transliteration </h2>
     33  * The data structures and functions described in this header provide
     34  * transliteration services.  Transliteration services are implemented
     35  * as C++ classes.  The comments and documentation in this header
     36  * assume the reader is familiar with the C++ headers translit.h and
     37  * associated documentation.
     38  *
     39  * A significant but incomplete subset of the C++ transliteration
     40  * services are available to C code through this header.  In order to
     41  * access more complex transliteration services, refer to the C++
     42  * headers and documentation.
     43  *
     44  * There are two sets of functions for working with transliterator IDs:
     45  *
     46  * An old, deprecated set uses char * IDs, which works for true and pure
     47  * identifiers that these APIs were designed for,
     48  * for example "Cyrillic-Latin".
     49  * It does not work when the ID contains filters ("[:Script=Cyrl:]")
     50  * or even a complete set of rules because then the ID string contains more
     51  * than just "invariant" characters (see utypes.h).
     52  *
     53  * A new set of functions replaces the old ones and uses UChar * IDs,
     54  * paralleling the UnicodeString IDs in the C++ API. (New in ICU 2.8.)
