*/
U_NAMESPACE_BEGIN
class UnicodeString;
/**
* <code>Replaceable</code> is an abstract base class representing a
* string of characters that supports the replacement of a range of
* itself with a new string of characters. It is used by APIs that
* change a piece of text while retaining metadata. Metadata is data
* other than the Unicode characters returned by char32At(). One
* example of metadata is style attributes; another is an edit
* history, marking each character with an author and revision number.
*
* <p>An implicit aspect of the <code>Replaceable</code> API is that
* during a replace operation, new characters take on the metadata of
* the old characters. For example, if the string "the <b>bold</b>
* font" has range (4, 8) replaced with "strong", then it becomes "the
* <b>strong</b> font".
*
* <p><code>Replaceable</code> specifies ranges using a start
* offset and a limit offset. The range of characters thus specified
* includes the characters at offset start..limit-1. That is, the
* start offset is inclusive, and the limit offset is exclusive.
*
* <p><code>Replaceable</code> also includes API to access characters
* in the string: <code>length()</code>, <code>charAt()</code>,
* <code>char32At()</code>, and <code>extractBetween()</code>.
*
* <p>For a subclass to support metadata, typical behavior of
* <code>replace()</code> is the following:
* <ul>
* <li>Set the metadata of the new text to the metadata of the first
* character replaced</li>
* <li>If no characters are replaced, use the metadata of the
* previous character</li>
* <li>If there is no previous character (i.e. start == 0), use the
* following character</li>
* <li>If there is no following character (i.e. the replaceable was
* empty), use default metadata.<br>
* <li>If the code point U+FFFF is seen, it should be interpreted as
* a special marker having no metadata<li>
* </li>
* </ul>
* If this is not the behavior, the subclass should document any differences.
