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.
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The ARM/ARM64 builds require using a newer version of the Windows SDK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.
- Use STATIC_NEW for mutex creation, to avoid order-of-destruction problems
by avoiding destruction altogether, while avoiding memory leak reports.
- Remove UConditionVar, replace with direct use of std::condition_variable
Remove the dependencies from the ICU library code on static constructors
that were introduced by using std::mutex and condition variables. The
mutexes are lazily initialized by embedding them as local static variables
in getter functions, and relying on the C++ compiler/runtime to do thread
safe initialization of them.
Remove all POSIX and Win32 specific mutex, atomic and threading implementations
in favor of C++11 std library functions.
Move the related (internal) ICU types and functions into the icu namespace.
In an effort to reduce the number of warnings that building ICU emits, we should set the following define for ICU4C library code when building using MSVC/VisualStudio: _HAS_EXCEPTIONS=0
This tells the MSVC implementation of the STL that exceptions should not be used - which is fine for ICU4C library code, as the library code does not make use of exceptions at all.
* create a new escaper tool - needs to be invoked in mh- files
* escapes to temporary _whatever.cpp files
* does NOT handle multi line u"xxx" (or u'xxx'? )
* does not cleanup _*.cpp files
* fixup a bunch of Makefiles to add -I$(srcdir) (doesn't hurt anyway)
