/**
 * <code>FieldPosition is a simple class used by Format
 * and its subclasses to identify fields in formatted output. Fields can
 * be identified in two ways:
 * <ul>
 *  <li>By an integer constant, whose names typically end with
 *      <code>_FIELD. The constants are defined in the various
 *      subclasses of <code>Format.
 *  <li>By a Format.Field constant, see ERA_FIELD
 *      and its friends in <code>DateFormat for an example.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * <code>FieldPosition keeps track of the position of the
 * field within the formatted output with two indices: the index
 * of the first character of the field and the index of the last
 * character of the field.
 *
 * <p>
 * One version of the <code>format method in the various
 * <code>Format classes requires a FieldPosition
 * object as an argument. You use this <code>format method
 * to perform partial formatting or to get information about the
 * formatted output (such as the position of a field).
 *
 * <p>
 * If you are interested in the positions of all attributes in the
 * formatted string use the <code>Format method
 * <code>formatToCharacterIterator.
 *
