+/**
+ * An interface that defines both lookup protocol and parsing of
+ * symbolic names.
+ *
+ * <p>A symbol table maintains two kinds of mappings. The first is
+ * between symbolic names and their values. For example, if the
+ * variable with the name "start" is set to the value "alpha"
+ * (perhaps, though not necessarily, through an expression such as
+ * "$start=alpha"), then the call lookup("start") will return the
+ * char[] array ['a', 'l', 'p', 'h', 'a'].
+ *
+ * <p>The second kind of mapping is between character values and
+ * UnicodeMatcher objects. This is used by RuleBasedTransliterator,
+ * which uses characters in the private use area to represent objects
+ * such as UnicodeSets. If U+E015 is mapped to the UnicodeSet [a-z],
+ * then lookupMatcher(0xE015) will return the UnicodeSet [a-z].
+ *
+ * <p>Finally, a symbol table defines parsing behavior for symbolic
+ * names. All symbolic names start with the SYMBOL_REF character.
+ * When a parser encounters this character, it calls parseReference()
+ * with the position immediately following the SYMBOL_REF. The symbol
+ * table parses the name, if there is one, and returns it.
+ *
