Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2629:
-------------------------------------
bq. I find it a strange concept to have two binary file formats, one for
big-endian and one for little-endian, only one of which is usable. I would have
thought that the gennorm2 program should generate the file format that works,
no matter what machine it is run on.
I could be wrong, but I think the reason ICU's data files are endian-dependent
is because they are designed to be very very quickly mapped into memory
(e.g. the speed at which the underlying character property data can be mapped
into memory so that java.lang.Character becomes useful is sensitive)
> In modules/analysys/icu, ant gennorm2 does not work
