International Components for Unicode (C/C++) 4.0 (Default branch)
ICU provides a Unicode implementation, with functions for formatting numbers, dates, times, and currencies (according to locale conventions, transliteration, and parsing text in those formats). It provides flexible patterns for formatting messages, where the pattern determines the order of the variable parts of the messages, and the format for each of those variables. These patterns can be stored in resource files for translation to different languages. Included are more than 100 codepage converters for interaction with non-unicode systems. License: MIT/X Consortium License Changes:
This is a major release with new features, new APIs, and many bugfixes in data and code. Unicode 5.1 is supported, and CLDR 1.6 includes many improvements. Supported calendars now include Chinese, Coptic, and Ethiopic calendars. New APIs were added such as add/removeLikelySubtags. The charset converter file size was improved. This release includes Date Interval Formatting and Improved Plural support. Security improvements include fixes for CVE-2007-4770, CVE-2007-4771, and CVS-2008-1036.Image

genbrk

GENBRK(1)							 ICU 50.1.2 Manual							 GENBRK(1)

NAME

       genbrk - Compiles ICU break iteration rules source files into binary data files

SYNOPSIS

       genbrk  [  -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir direc-
       tory ] -r, --rules rule-file -o, --out output-file

DESCRIPTION

       genbrk reads the break (boundary) rule source code from rule-file and creates a break iteration data file. Normally this data file has  the
       .brk extension.

       The details of the rule syntax can be found in ICU's User Guide.

OPTIONS

       -h, -?, --help
	      Print help about usage and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Print the version of genbrk and exit.

       -c, --copyright
	      Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.

       -v, --verbose
	      Display extra informative messages during execution.

       -d, --destdir destination
	      Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.

       -i, --icudatadir directory
	      Look  for  any necessary ICU data files in directory.  For example, the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built
	      as a shared library.  The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.  Most configurations of  ICU
	      do not require this argument.

       -r, --rules rule-file
	      The source file to read.

       -o, --out output-file
	      The output data file to write.

CAVEATS

       When the rule-file contains a byte order mark (BOM) at the beginning of the file, which is the Unicode character U+FEFF, then the rule-file
       is interpreted as Unicode. Without the BOM, the file is interpreted in the current operating system default codepage.  In order	to  elimi-
       nate any ambiguity of the encoding for how the rule-file was written, it is recommended that you write this file in UTF-8 with the BOM.

ENVIRONMENT

       ICU_DATA  Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to /usr/share/icu/50.1.2/.  Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the
		 trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set.
