For released CLDR sources, an alternative to checking out sources +# for a given version is downloading the zipped sources for the common (core.zip) +# and tools (tools.zip) directory subtrees from the Data column in +# [http://cldr.unicode.org/index/downloads]. +# +# The versions of each of these must match. Included with the release notes for +# ICU is the version number and/or a CLDR git tag name for the revision of CLDR +# that was the source of the data for that release of ICU. +# +# Besides a standard JDK, the process also requires ant and maven +# (http://ant.apache.org/), +# plus the xml-apis.jar from the Apache xalan package +# (http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/downloads.html). +# +# You will also need to have performed the CLDR Maven setup (non-Eclipse version) +# per http://cldr.unicode.org/development/maven +# +# Note: Enough things can (and will) fail in this process that it is best to +# run the commands separately from an interactive shell. They should all +# copy and paste without problems. +# +# It is often useful to save logs of the output of many of the steps in this +# process. The commands below put log files in /tmp; you may want to put them +# somewhere else. +# +#---- +# +# There are several environment variables that need to be defined. +# +# a) Java- and ant-related variables +# +# JAVA_HOME: Path to JDK (a directory, containing e.g. bin/java, bin/javac, +# etc.); on many systems this can be set using +# `/usr/libexec/java_home`. +# +# ANT_OPTS: You may want to set: +# +# -Xmx4096m, to give Java more memory; otherwise it may run out +# of heap. +# +# b) CLDR-related variables +# +# CLDR_DIR: This is the path to the to root of standard CLDR sources, below +# which are the common and tools directories. +# +# CLDR_CLASSES: Path to the CLDR Tools classes directory. If not set, defaults +# to $CLDR_DIR/tools/java/classes +# +# CLDR_TMP_DIR: Parent of temporary CLDR production data. +# Defaults to $CLDR_DIR/../cldr-aux (sibling to CLDR_DIR). +# +# *** NOTE ***: In CLDR 36 and 37, the GenerateProductionData tool +# no longer generates data by default into $CLDR_TMP_DIR/production; +# instead it generates data into $CLDR_DIR/../cldr-staging/production +# (though there is a command-line option to override this). However +# the rest of the build still assumes that the generated data is in +# $CLDR_TMP_DIR/production. So CLDR_TMP_DIR must be defined to be +# $CLDR_DIR/../cldr-staging +# +# c) ICU-related variables +# These variables only need to be set if you're directly reusing the +# commands below. +# +# ICU4C_DIR: Path to root of ICU4C sources, below which is the source dir. +# +# ICU4J_ROOT: Path to root of ICU4J sources, below which is the main dir. +# +# TOOLS_ROOT: Path to root of ICU tools directory, below which is (e.g.) the +# cldr and unicodetools dirs. +# +#---- +# +# If you are adding or removing locales, or specific kinds of locale data, +# there are some xml files in the ICU sources that need to be updated (these xml +# files are used in addition to the CLDR files as inputs to the CLDR data build +# process for ICU): +# +# The primary file to edit for ICU 67 and later is +# +# $TOOLS_ROOT/cldr/cldr-to-icu/build-icu-data.xml +# +#---- +# +# For an official CLDR data integration into ICU, there are some additional +# considerations: +# +# a) Don't commit anything in ICU sources (and possibly any changes in CLDR +# sources, depending on their nature) until you have finished testing and +# resolving build issues and test failures for both ICU4C and ICU4J. +# +# b) There are version numbers that may need manual updating in CLDR (other +# version numbers get updated automatically, based on these): +# +# common/dtd/ldml.dtd - update cldrVersion +# common/dtd/ldmlBCP47.dtd - update cldrVersion +# common/dtd/ldmlSupplemental.dtd - update cldrVersion +# common/dtd/ldmlSupplemental.dtd - updateunicodeVersion +# keyboards/dtd/ldmlKeyboard.dtd - update cldrVersion +# tools/java/org/unicode/cldr/util/CLDRFile.java - update GEN_VERSION +# +# c) After everything is committed, you will need to tag the CLDR and ICU +# sources that ended up being used for the integration; see step 16 +# below. +# +################################################################################ + +# 1a.
