Dear Marc,
I'm copying our last e-mail into the ICU mailing list, maybe others can benefit from it.
Glad to hear you got it working!
Best Regards, Omar

Dear Omar,
The library should compile under BCB5 with no problems whatsoever, but the project files I used to build it are from BCB6, so are the precompiled DLLs. I think that back-porting it to BCB5 should be a piece of cake, but upgrading your C++ Builder version would be easier than that.
Many thanks once more for the port. As you predicted, the problems with BCB5 were slight - to compile the main library, it was necessary to modify rbbi.cpp somewhat because the compiler (incorrectly) complained about the instantiation of a static member variable. If you, in turn, have interested in that minor patch, please tell me.
I did the compilation from your sources with the command line version of the compiler using boost jam, though that worked only for the main icu library, not for the data library (which I didn't try hard, I must admit).
Linking against your precompiled library works like a charm even from within BCB5. Also, using the BCB5 version of icu with your binary icudata works perfectly.
Best regards,
Marc

Dear Omar,
I'm posting the next file on my company's website at:
http://www.idea.com.mx/ICU/ICU2.6_BCB6.EXE
It's an autoexec RAR-archive, you can simply use the precompiled DLL's I include (those are UPX compressed - self extract at runtime) or compile the project yourself, all the source code and header (modified to build into Borland C++).
A thousand thanks for the file! I've immediately downloaded and unpacked the library, first thing tomorrow morning I'll test it with Borland 5 (or does it require BC 6 as the name suggests in which case I'll update?)
Best regards,
Marc
Any help I could be of, please let me know.
Regards, ~ Omar

Dear Mr. Castaeda Acosta,
I've got a port of ICU for Borland C++ Builder.
Forgot to tell the list once I managed to make it work. I made so many changes to make it work and I did not keep track of them, so I can just provide the full source and/or DLLs.
If anyone needs it please let me know.
Many thanks for your kind offer. I'd be most grateful for the Borland port.
Best regards,
Marc Kuester
