CodePage

All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicLatin, DefaultCodePage, Greek, Ipa, LatinExtA, LatinExtB, LatinSupp
```
public interface CodePage
```
The interface CodePage should be used to represent a range of Unicode characters. This range is defined by the first and the last character in the range, both as integer values. In addition a name has to be assigned to the range.
An implementation of this interface must at least provide the instance variables firstCharacter, lastCharacter and name for which the get- and set-methods are declared in this interface. All variables should be set in the constructor.
A default implementation DefaultCodePage is provided in order to facilitate the implementation of further code pages.
