What is ICU?
The International Component for Unicode (ICU) is a mature, portable set
of C/C++ and Java libraries for Unicode support, software
internationalization (I18N) and globalization (G11N), giving
applications the same results on all platforms.
ICU Features

As
computing environments become more heterogeneous, software portability
becomes very important. ICU provides robust, full-featured Unicode
services on a wide variety of platforms, without sacrificing
performance. An open source project sponsored, supported, and used by
IBM, ICU is providing robust, full-featured, commercial quality
Unicode-based technologies. Supporting the most current version of the
Unicode standard, including supplementary Unicode characters needed for
support of the repertoires of GB 18030, HKSCS, and JIS X 0213, it
offers great flexibility to extend and customize supplied services,
including:

• Text: Unicode text handling, full character properties and character set conversions (500+ code pages)
• Analysis: Unicode regular expressions; full Unicode sets; character, word and line boundaries
• Comparison: language sensitive collation and searching
• Transformations: normalization, upper/lowercase, script transliterations (50+ pairs)
• Locales: comprehensive data (230+) & resource bundle architecture
• Complex Text Layout: Arabic, Hebrew, Indic and Thai
• Formatting and Parsing: multi-calendar and time zone,dates, times, numbers, currencies, messages
