 * subset of the full range (U+0000 to U+10FFFF) of Unicode characters.
 * Currently, filters are used in conjunction with classes like
 * {@link Transliterator} to only process selected characters through a
 * transformation.
 *
 * <p>Note: UnicodeFilter currently stubs out two pure virtual methods
 * of its base class, UnicodeMatcher.  These methods are toPattern()
 * and matchesIndexValue().  This is done so that filter classes that
 * are not actually used as matchers -- specifically, those in the
 * UnicodeFilterLogic component, and those in tests -- can continue to
 * work without defining these methods.  As long as a filter is not
 * used in an RBT during real transliteration, these methods will not
 * be called.  However, this breaks the UnicodeMatcher base class
 * protocol, and it is not a correct solution.
 *
 * <p>In the future we may revisit the UnicodeMatcher / UnicodeFilter
 * hierarchy and either redesign it, or simply remove the stubs in
 * UnicodeFilter and force subclasses to implement the full
 * UnicodeMatcher protocol.
