Common Changes
CLDR 30.0.2: For details of the many changes in CLDR, see CLDR 30. Some \
things to note:
For some combinations of numbering system (arab, arabext, latn) and/or \
locale (ar, fa, he), there were changes to the bidirectional control characters \
used with certain symbols (percent, minus, plus), and changes to number patterns \
(currency and/or percent, including addition of bidirectional control characters \
in some cases).
New in this release, the bidirectional controls used for such purposes \
include U+061C ARABIC LETTER MARK (ALM), which requires use of the bidirectional \
algorithm from Unicode 6.3 or later.
The time separator for Norwegian locales (nb, nn) was changed to be ':' \
throughout.
Unicode 9.0: Version 9.0 adds exactly 7,500 characters, for a total of \
128,172 characters. These additions include six new scripts, 19 symbols for the \
new 4K TV standard, and 72 new emoji characters.
Draft Emoji 4.0 data
Emoji updates for word & line breaking. (#12664 & Unicode 9 \
update #12526)
UBiDiTransform/BidiTransform API for convenient transformation of text \
between different Bidi layouts. (#11679)
MeasureFormat API for measurement unit display names. (#12029)
Most COUNT and LIMIT enum constants have been deprecated. (#12420)
SpoofChecker: Handling of "whole script confusables" has been \
removed from ICU, in accordance with its removal from UTS #39 Version 9.0.0 and \
the removal of the corresponding Unicode data file. (#12549)
Greek uppercasing ("el" locale ID) removes most diacritics. (#5456)
More robust locale data loading across ICU implementation code.
Reduced heap memory usage in DateTimePatternGenerator. (#11782)
ICU4C Specific Changes
The layout engine code has been removed; the ParagraphLayout is not \
deprecated and remains (and must now be built on top of HarfBuzz). See \
http://userguide.icu-project.org/layoutengine (#12708)
Windows: Supports & requires Visual Studio 2015.
