Change to use the Windows 10 SDK for Win32 (Win7) builds on the VS2019 ADO images.
The Windows 10 SDK is backwards compatible to Windows 7, if WINVER and
_WIN32_WINNT are set before compiling.
Clean up the vcxproj files from VC7.1
If udata_create won't find U_FILE_SEP_CHAR at the end of a dir variable,
then it appends it. The problem starts if the dir variable uses
U_FILE_ALT_SEP_CHAR which is not equal to U_FILE_SEP_CHAR. Then the
resulting path could look like this
../data\mappings/cns-11643-1992.ucm
instead of this
../data/mappings/cns-11643-1992.ucm
This patch uses U_FILE_SEP_CHAR unless it detects that the dir variable
doesn't use it, and uses U_FILE_ALT_SEP_CHAR instead.
- Still allows "1234" or "cldrbug:1234" format ticket IDs
- However, docs recommend "ICU-1234" or "CLDR-1234" format
in the future.
- Other ticket IDs could be used, but won't be linkified.
Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET):
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-sdm
contains shadow stack (SHSTK) and indirect branch tracking (IBT). When
CET is enabled, ELF object files must be marked with .note.gnu.property
section. GCC provides <cet.h> which can be included in assembly codes
to generate CET maker when compiling with -fcf-protection.
This change builds on Vincent Torri's changes.
This installs the ICU DLL files in $prefix/bin instead of $prefix/lib.
Note: In order to disable this change in behavior you can edit
the "mh-mingw*" file(s). If you set the variable MINGW_MOVEDLLSTOBINDIR
to NO instead of YES, then it will retain the previous behavior of
installing the DLLs into the bin folder.
The definition of max_align_t is not guaranteed to be available unless
the appropriate header is included. Since use of <stddef.h> from C++ is
deprecated, that's <cstddef>, and max_align_t is thus defined under the
std namespace rather than in the global namespace.
This enables "classic" desktop builds of ICU4C for both ARM (32-bit)
and ARM64 (64-bit) on Windows.
All but the two samples "cal" and "date" in the "allinone" project now
have ARM and ARM64 project configurations, and build for Windows Desktop
ARM/ARM64.
Note: In order to build the ARM/ARM64 data DLL, you need to first build
x64/Release, as the ARM/ARM build uses the x64 bits in order to be able
to cross-compile for ARM/ARM64. This allows for completely building
ARM/ARM64 binaries using only x64 hardware.
The ARM/ARM64 builds require using a newer version of the Windows SDK
than 8.1, so they have a separate WindowsTargetPlatformVersion which
uses Windows 10 SDK version 10.0.16299.0 (aka RS3), which is the first
version of the Windows SDK to support building ARM64 desktop applications.
In addition this also greatly cleans-up the ICU4C ".vcxproj" files, in
order to remove redundant parts, fix inconsistencies, and make them more
readable. This introduces two new variables in the shared `*.props`
files: `IcuBinOutputDir` and `IcuLibOutputDir` in order to further
reduce the amount of duplicated lines in the individual ".vcxproj"
files themselves.
This adds a separate CI build that enables -Werror for clang.
This also fixes all of the -Wall -Wextra warnings in the tests, and all the
-Wextra-semi warnings as well.
* Fix MSVC C4251: Need to export explicit template instantiation for std::atomic<int32_t> when building DLLs
* Some more warning fixes for MSVC as well.
* Can't use static_cast in C file.
