Unicode 11.0

[DFH]

Unicode 11.0 was released by the Unicode Consortium on 2018-06-05.
See https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode11.0.0/

Which is the latest version of Unicode that TextPipe supports ?

Best regards,

David

Still waiting for a response. Any news?

Latest Unicode version is 5.2.1.

I have asked the Component owner if this can be rectified.

I must say "I'm shocked!"

Unicode 5.2 was released in October 2009, so the library component is ten years behind.

There are two Unicode components in TextPipe - the pattern matching engine is quite current, but the individual transforms (NKF etc) are much older.

How does this affect your development road-map?

David

[DataMystic Support]

We've made a request for the open source component to be updated
http://issuetracker.delphi-jedi.org/view.php?id=6679

In the meantime, we are switching the regex component to a more recent offering and seeing which other Unicode functions are available that we can leverage.

[DFH]

Am I right in thinking that this improvement didn't make it to TextPipe v10.8 ?

David

[DataMystic Support]

Correct - this is not ready for release yet.
