Betreff: AW: [Fribidi-discuss] License question to the project owners

Hi,

i have read your discussion. 

I have a problem with the bidi algorithm. See original message below.
It has nothing to do with fribidi, because I decided to take ICU. Maybe you
can help me, because it is a bidi problem. Maybe you have the same problem
solved with fribidi so far.

Thanks 

Stefan



Original message:

Hi,

i am testing ICU 2.4 with your Layout sample.

But i have problems with embedded levels using the ubidi_setPara und 
ubidi_getLogicalRun API.

This is my sample in logical order.  <<12 34 56 78 90.txt>> 

12 34 56 78 AB 90

AB are strong RTL characters. Paragrapg level is LTR. "34 56" should be 
treated as RTL run

How can I achieve the following visual output:

12 56 34 78 BA 90

I tried 2 solutions

1. if i am using embedded levels ("00011110000000000") with ubidi_setPara, 
AB is not resolved as RTL run, when calling ubidi_getLogicalRun.

2. if i am using the RLE keyword (12 <RLE>34 56<PDF> 78 AB 90), the output 
is  12 90 BA 78 56 34

Please show me the right way.

I would be very glad, if you can help.

Thanks

Stefan Wanger

Fribidi is in C which will require an extra wrapper layer.  `UAX 9`_
has demo code in C++ and Java, is that of any use (code-wise and
license-wise)?  I must admit I never looked at it, just guessing that
it's worth a look since your library is in Java...

If I don't hack on it, who will?  And if I don't GPL it, what am I?
And if it itches, why not now?  [With apologies to Hilel ;]
