Sure, seems fine to have it in the WebKit tree, presumably alongside or inside WTF. It’s really the same thing as what’s in wtf/unicode right now with some different function names. Mostly it would be moving that code inside functions with new names. What we need is a road map. I know how to change WebKit to use ICU directly, and how to test that both on my own Mac and the EWS and buildbot machines, but I don’t know how to test and figure out exactly how many of these stub functions are needed, even for a port with a buildbot but especially for one without. Patrick, to state the obvious, if it really is only the WinCE port that would this, then I think it’s a project we need your help on. — Darin _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
