*/
/**
* Initialize ICU.
*
* Use of this function is optional. It is OK to simply use ICU
* services and functions without first having initialized
* ICU by calling u_init().
*
* u_init() will attempt to load some part of ICU's data, and is
* useful as a test for configuration or installation problems that
* leave the ICU data inaccessible. A successful invocation of u_init()
* does not, however, guarantee that all ICU data is accessible.
*
* Multiple calls to u_init() cause no harm, aside from the small amount
* of time required.
*
* In old versions of ICU, u_init() was required in multi-threaded applications
* to ensure the thread safety of ICU. u_init() is no longer needed for this purpose.
*
* @param status An ICU UErrorCode parameter. It must not be <code>NULL</code>.
* An Error will be returned if some required part of ICU data can not
* be loaded or initialized.
* The function returns immediately if the input error code indicates a
* failure, as usual.
*
* @stable ICU 2.6

/**
* Clean up the system resources, such as allocated memory or open files,
* used in all ICU libraries. This will free/delete all memory owned by the
* ICU libraries, and return them to their original load state. All open ICU
* items (collators, resource bundles, converters, etc.) must be closed before
* calling this function, otherwise ICU may not free its allocated memory
* (e.g. close your converters and resource bundles before calling this
* function). Generally, this function should be called once just before
* an application exits. For applications that dynamically load and unload
* the ICU libraries (relatively uncommon), u_cleanup() should be called
* just before the library unload.
* <p>
* u_cleanup() also clears any ICU heap functions, mutex functions or
* trace functions that may have been set for the process.
* This has the effect of restoring ICU to its initial condition, before
* any of these override functions were installed. Refer to
* u_setMemoryFunctions(), u_setMutexFunctions and
* utrace_setFunctions(). If ICU is to be reinitialized after after
* calling u_cleanup(), these runtime override functions will need to
* be set up again if they are still required.
* <p>
* u_cleanup() is not thread safe. All other threads should stop using ICU
* before calling this function.
* <p>
* Any open ICU items will be left in an undefined state by u_cleanup(),
* and any subsequent attempt to use such an item will give unpredictable
* results.
* <p>
* After calling u_cleanup(), an application may continue to use ICU by
* calling u_init(). An application must invoke u_init() first from one single
* thread before allowing other threads call u_init(). All threads existing
* at the time of the first thread's call to u_init() must also call
* u_init() themselves before continuing with other ICU operations.
* <p>
* The use of u_cleanup() just before an application terminates is optional,
* but it should be called only once for performance reasons. The primary
* benefit is to eliminate reports of memory or resource leaks originating
* in ICU code from the results generated by heap analysis tools.
* <p>
* <strong>Use this function with great care!</strong>
