     20  * \file
     21  * \brief C API: UFieldPositionIterator for use with format APIs.
     22  *
     23  * Usage:
     24  * ufieldpositer_open creates an empty (unset) UFieldPositionIterator.
     25  * This can be passed to format functions such as {@link #udat_formatForFields},
     26  * which will set it to apply to the fields in a particular formatted string.
     27  * ufieldpositer_next can then be used to iterate over those fields,
     28  * providing for each field its type (using values that are specific to the
     29  * particular format type, such as date or number formats), as well as the
     30  * start and end positions of the field in the formatted string.
     31  * A given UFieldPositionIterator can be re-used for different format calls;
     32  * each such call resets it to apply to that format string.
     33  * ufieldpositer_close should be called to dispose of the UFieldPositionIterator
     34  * when it is no longer needed.
     35  *
     36  * @see FieldPositionIterator
