LIBUNIBREAK

Overview

This is the README file for libunibreak, an implementation of the line breaking and word breaking algorithms as described in [Unicode Standard Annex 14] 1 and [Unicode Standard Annex 29] 2. Check the project's [home page] 3 for up-to-date information.

Licence

This library is released under an open-source licence, the zlib/libpng licence. Please check the file LICENCE for details.

Apart from using the algorithm, part of the code is derived from the [Unicode Public Data] 4, and the [Unicode Terms of Use] 5 may apply.

Installation

There are three ways to build the library:

1. On *NIX systems supported by the autoconfiscation tools, do the normal

    ./configure
    make
    sudo make install
   

   to build and install both the dynamic and static libraries. In addition, one may

   • type make doc to generate the doxygen documentation; or
   • type make linebreakdata to regenerate linebreakdata.c from LineBreak.txt.
   • type make wordbreakdata to regenerate wordbreakdata.c from WordBreakProperty.txt.
   • type make graphemebreakdata to regenerate graphemebreakdata.c from GraphemeBreakProperty.txt.

2. On systems where GCC and Binutils are supported, one can type

    cd src
    cp -p Makefile.gcc Makefile
    make
   

   to build the static library. In addition, one may

   • type make debug or make release to explicitly generate the debug or release build;
   • type make doc to generate the doxygen documentation; or
   • type make linebreakdata to regenerate linebreakdata.c from LineBreak.txt.
   • type make wordbreakdata to regenerate wordbreakdata.c from WordBreakProperty.txt.
   • type make graphemebreakdata to regenerate graphemebreakdata.c from GraphemeBreakProperty.txt.

3. On Windows, apart from using method 1 (Cygwin/MSYS) and method 2 (MinGW), MSVC can also be used. Type

    cd src
    nmake -f Makefile.msvc
   

   to build the static library. By default the debug release is built. To build the release version

    nmake -f Makefile.msvc CFG="libunibreak - Win32 Release"
