<P>
Collects the results from a search engine query.
Clients implement a subclass to pass to <code>SearchEngine.search</code>
and implement the <A HREF="../../../../../../org/eclipse/wst/jsdt/core/search/SearchRequestor.html#acceptSearchMatch(org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.search.SearchMatch)"><CODE>acceptSearchMatch(SearchMatch)</CODE></A> method, and
possibly override other life cycle methods.
<p>
The search engine calls <code>beginReporting()</code> when a search starts,
then calls <code>acceptSearchMatch(...)</code> for each search result, and
finally calls <code>endReporting()</code>. The order of the search results
is unspecified and may vary from request to request; when displaying results,
clients should not rely on the order but should instead arrange the results
in an order that would be more meaningful to the user.
