This class defines methods of string
comparison that follow
culture-specific rules. The
CultureInfo.CompareInfo property contains an
instance of this class. The Compare( ) method and
other string searching methods, such as IndexOf( )
and IsPrefix( ), can be passed a set of
CompareOptions, which provide culture-specific
flags related to strings. The GetCompareInfo( )
method is used instead of a public constructor to retrieve an
instance of this class.
