      2 uciter8: Lenient reading of 8-bit Unicode with a UCharIterator
      3 
      4 This sample demonstrates reading
      5 8-bit Unicode text leniently, accepting a mix of UTF-8 and CESU-8
      6 and also accepting single surrogates.
      7 UTF-8-style macros are defined as well as a UCharIterator.
      8 The macros are incomplete (do not assemble code points from pairs of surrogates)
      9 but sufficient for the iterator.
     10 
     11 If you wish to use the lenient-UTF/CESU-8 UCharIterator in a context outside of
     12 this sample, then copy the uit_len8.c file,
     13 as well as either the uit_len8.h header or just the prototype that it contains.
     14 
     15 *** Warning: ***
     16 This UCharIterator reads an arbitrary mix of UTF-8 and CESU-8 text.
     17 It does not conform to any one Unicode charset specification,
     18 and its use may lead to security risks.

     28 To Build uciter8 on Windows
     29     1.  Install and build ICU
     30     2.  In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\uciter8\uciter8.sln
     31     3.  Choose a Debug or Release build.
     32     4.  Build.
     33 
     34 To Run on Windows
     35     1.  Start a command shell window
     36     2.  Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
     37             set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
     38         (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
     39     3.  cd into the uciter8 directory, e.g.
     40             cd c:\icu\source\samples\uciter8\debug
     41     4.  Run it
     42             uciter8
     43 
     44 To Build on Unixes
     45     1.  Build ICU.  
     46         Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
     47         using the --prefix option.  The steps to build ICU will look something
     48         like this:
     49            cd <icu directory>/source
     50            runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
     51            gmake all
     52 
     53     2.  Install ICU, 
     54            gmake install
     55 
     56     3.  Compile
     57            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uciter8
     58            gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory)
     59 
     60 To Run on Unixes
     61            cd <icu directory>/source/samples/uciter8
     62            
     63            gmake ICU_PREFIX=<icu install directory>  check
     64                -or- 
     65 
     66            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
     67            uciter8
     68 
     69 
     70  Note:  The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
     71         If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
     72         the variable that is used there.  LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
     73         for Linux and Solaris.
