 * \brief C API: MessageFormat
 *
 * <h2>MessageFormat C API </h2>
 *
 * <p>MessageFormat prepares strings for display to users,
 * with optional arguments (variables/placeholders).
 * The arguments can occur in any order, which is necessary for translation
 * into languages with different grammars.
 *
 * <p>The opaque UMessageFormat type is a thin C wrapper around
 * a C++ MessageFormat. It is constructed from a <em>pattern</em> string
 * with arguments in {curly braces} which will be replaced by formatted values.
 *
 * <p>Currently, the C API supports only numbered arguments.
 *
 * <p>For details about the pattern syntax and behavior,
 * especially about the ASCII apostrophe vs. the
 * real apostrophe (single quote) character \htmlonly&#x2019;\endhtmlonly (U+2019),
 * see the C++ MessageFormat class documentation.
 *
 * <p>Here are some examples of C API usage:
 * Example 1:
 * <pre>
 * \code
 *     UChar *result, *tzID, *str;
 *     UChar pattern[100];
 *     int32_t resultLengthOut, resultlength;
 *     UCalendar *cal;
 *     UDate d1;
 *     UDateFormat *def1;
 *     UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *
 *     str=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * (strlen("disturbance in force") +1));
 *     u_uastrcpy(str, "disturbance in force");
 *     tzID=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * 4);
 *     u_uastrcpy(tzID, "PST");
 *     cal=ucal_open(tzID, u_strlen(tzID), "en_US", UCAL_TRADITIONAL, &status);
 *     ucal_setDateTime(cal, 1999, UCAL_MARCH, 18, 0, 0, 0, &status);
 *     d1=ucal_getMillis(cal, &status);
 *     u_uastrcpy(pattern, "On {0, date, long}, there was a {1} on planet {2,number,integer}");
 *     resultlength=0;
 *     resultLengthOut=u_formatMessage( "en_US", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), NULL, resultlength, &status, d1, str, 7);
 *     if(status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
 *         status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *         resultlength=resultLengthOut+1;
 *         result=(UChar*)realloc(result, sizeof(UChar) * resultlength);
 *         u_formatMessage( "en_US", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), result, resultlength, &status, d1, str, 7);
 *     }
 *     printf("%s\n", austrdup(result) );//austrdup( a function used to convert UChar* to char*)
 *     //output>: "On March 18, 1999, there was a disturbance in force on planet 7
 * \endcode
 * </pre>
 * Typically, the message format will come from resources, and the
 * arguments will be dynamically set at runtime.
 * <P>
 * Example 2:
 * <pre>
 * \code
 *     UChar* str;
 *     UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *     UChar *result;
 *     UChar pattern[100];
 *     int32_t resultlength, resultLengthOut, i;
 *     double testArgs= { 100.0, 1.0, 0.0};
 *
 *     str=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * 10);
 *     u_uastrcpy(str, "MyDisk");
 *     u_uastrcpy(pattern, "The disk {1} contains {0,choice,0#no files|1#one file|1<{0,number,integer} files}");
 *     for(i=0; i<3; i++){
 *       resultlength=0; 
 *       resultLengthOut=u_formatMessage( "en_US", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), NULL, resultlength, &status, testArgs[i], str); 
 *       if(status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR){
 *         status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *         resultlength=resultLengthOut+1;
 *         result=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * resultlength);
 *         u_formatMessage( "en_US", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), result, resultlength, &status, testArgs[i], str);
 *       }
 *       printf("%s\n", austrdup(result) );  //austrdup( a function used to convert UChar* to char*)
 *       free(result);
 *     }
 *     // output, with different testArgs:
 *     // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains 100 files.
 *     // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains one file.
 *     // output: The disk "MyDisk" contains no files.
 * \endcode
 *  </pre>
 *
 *
 * Example 3:
 * <pre>
 * \code
 * UChar* str;
 * UChar* str1;
 * UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 * UChar *result;
 * UChar pattern[100];
 * UChar expected[100];
 * int32_t resultlength,resultLengthOut;

 * str=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * 25);
 * u_uastrcpy(str, "Kirti");
 * str1=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * 25);
 * u_uastrcpy(str1, "female");
 * log_verbose("Testing message format with Select test #1\n:");
 * u_uastrcpy(pattern, "{0} est {1, select, female {all\\u00E9e} other {all\\u00E9}} \\u00E0 Paris.");
 * u_uastrcpy(expected, "Kirti est all\\u00E9e \\u00E0 Paris.");
 * resultlength=0;
 * resultLengthOut=u_formatMessage( "fr", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), NULL, resultlength, &status, str , str1);
 * if(status==U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR)
 *  {
 *      status=U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *      resultlength=resultLengthOut+1;
 *      result=(UChar*)malloc(sizeof(UChar) * resultlength);
 *      u_formatMessage( "fr", pattern, u_strlen(pattern), result, resultlength, &status, str , str1);
 *      if(u_strcmp(result, expected)==0)
 *          log_verbose("PASS: MessagFormat successful on Select test#1\n");
 *      else{
 *          log_err("FAIL: Error in MessageFormat on Select test#1\n GOT %s EXPECTED %s\n", austrdup(result),
 *          austrdup(expected) );
