Unicode 6.3 update

This release has almost the same functionality as version 0.5.0, but it has updated data and algorithms to match the Unicode 6.3 standard.

Changelog:

• Updated data and algorithms to Unicode 6.3
• More useful character properties; some expert properties removed from general property interface
• Generally renamed "validation strategies" to "error handlers"
• Introduced UnicodeSequence concept
• Added some static well-formedness knowledge and optimisations based on it
• Made encode/decode free functions outside of encodings
• General reorganisation of the headers
• Added optional Boost.Exception support (#define OGONEK_BOOST_EXCEPTION to enable)

Normalisation 2

This release adds lots of normalisation-related functionality, and also a bunch of encoding forms. text is also now more fleshed out.

Changelog:

• Official normalisation tests pass
• Generic codepage encoding
• Added all ISO-8859 encodings
• Lots of container-like functionality for text (insert, erase, etc)
• Normalisation forms NFKC and NFKD
• Compatibility equivalence
• Canonical and compatibility hashes
• Commonly-used properties exposed

Cleanup

This is a small clean up release.

Changelog:

• Rename basic_text to text
• Removed _u UDL

Word breaks

This release adds word segmentation functionality and fixes some build issues.

Changelog:

• Now builds on all targets
• Added word segmentation algorithm

Bugfix

This is a bugfix release.

Changelog:

• Fixed UTF-8 bug

More encodings

Quick release, new encodings, plus a somewhat stabilised ABI

Changelog:

• Added ASCII, Latin-1, and Windows-1252 encodings
• First data ABI definition

Normalisation

This release updates all data and algorithms to Unicode 6.2, and also adds normalisation functionality.

Changelog:

• Added type-erased text class
• Added normalisation forms NFD and NFC
• Added canonical equivalence
• Updated data to Unicode 6.2

String class

Building upon 0.1.0, this release adds ogonek's "string class", named text, and some other nice features. All data and algorithms based on Unicode 6.1.

Changelog:

• Unicode Character Database and character property getters
• Grapheme cluster segmentation
• UTF-8/16/32 validation
• First working implementation of ogonek::text

Usable!

Very basic release. Mostly encodings.

Supports UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32 encoding forms, and encoding schemes. Also supports UTF-7, as a proof of concept.
