/**
* Wrapper class for UErrorCode, with conversion operators for direct use
* in ICU C and C++ APIs.
* Intended to be used as a base class, where a subclass overrides
* the handleFailure() function so that it throws an exception,
* does an assert(), logs an error, etc.
* This is not an abstract base class. This class can be used and instantiated
* by itself, although it will be more useful when subclassed.
*
* Features:
* - The constructor initializes the internal UErrorCode to U_ZERO_ERROR,
* removing one common source of errors.
* - Same use in C APIs taking a UErrorCode * (pointer)
* and C++ taking UErrorCode & (reference) via conversion operators.
* - Possible automatic checking for success when it goes out of scope.
*
* Note: For automatic checking for success in the destructor, a subclass
* must implement such logic in its own destructor because the base class
* destructor cannot call a subclass function (like handleFailure()).
* The ErrorCode base class destructor does nothing.
*
* Note also: While it is possible for a destructor to throw an exception,
* it is generally unsafe to do so. This means that in a subclass the destructor
* and the handleFailure() function may need to take different actions.
*
* Sample code:
* \code
* class IcuErrorCode: public icu::ErrorCode {
* public:
* virtual ~IcuErrorCode() { // should be defined in .cpp as "key function"
* // Safe because our handleFailure() does not throw exceptions.
* if(isFailure()) { handleFailure(); }
* }
* protected:
* virtual void handleFailure() const {
* log_failure(u_errorName(errorCode));
* exit(errorCode);
* }
* };
* IcuErrorCode error_code;
* UConverter *cnv = ucnv_open("Shift-JIS", error_code);
* length = ucnv_fromUChars(dest, capacity, src, length, error_code);
* ucnv_close(cnv);
* // IcuErrorCode destructor checks for success.
* \endcode
*
* @stable ICU 4.2
