Description : Unicode Algorithms Implementation for C/C++
This C/C++ library implemgnts Unicode algorithms and properly handle
ill-formed UTF sequences.
.
There are plenty of Unicode libraries for C/C++ out there that implement
random Unicode algorithms, but many of them don't handle ill-formed UTF
sequences at all. In the best-case scenario, you'll get an exception/error;
in the worst-case, undefined behavior. The biggest problem is that in 99%
cases everything will be fine. This is inappropriate for security reasons.
This library handles such problems (there are not only ill-formed
sequences actually)
properly and always according to The Unicode Standard.
This library is a dependency of securefs 1.0.0 .
