update to ICU 3.6
Major changes in ICU 3.6 include the following:
- Unicode: ICU uses and supports Unicode 5.0, which is the latest major release of Unicode. Unicode 5.0 will be used in many operating systems and applications, and this version of ICU is important maintain interoperability with these new operating systems and applications. More information about Unicode 5.0 can be found in the Unicode press release.
- Locale Data: ICU uses and supports data from Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) 1.4, which includes many improvements in quality and quantity of data. There is 25% more CLDR locale data in 245 locales in ICU.
- ICU4C Specific Changes
- Charset Detection: A charset detection framework was added, which provides heuristics for detecting the charset for unlabeled sequences of bytes.
- Layout: The font layout engine has support added for Tibetan, Sinhala and Old Hangul.
- BiDi: The BiDi algorithm was enhanced to be more flexible and efficient
- ICU Data Management: The new icupkg tool provides an easier way to manage ICU's data library. This tool allows you to add, update or remove data from ICU's data archive.
- Time Zones The time zone data is modularized to allow easier building and updating of the data.
- Word Boundaries: The Thai word break iteration was improved to be more accurate. Also dictionary based detection of Thai word boundaries is now active for all locales.
- UText
- The BreakIterator uses UText for abstract text processing.
- 64-bit indexing is now used to allow access to larger chunks of text.
- API for read-only locking for security and robustness was added.
- Performance
- The u_sprintf/u_sscanf performance from the icuio library has been improved for number formatting/parsing.
- Constructing a DateFormat is significantly faster for many locales.
- Opening and closing a charset converter is significantly faster.
- The UTF-8 transformation functions and macros are faster.
- The UText API was improved for performance.
- The collation open and close functions have a small performance improvement.
