I am pleased to announce the release of ucorelib, a new Unicode library for OCaml. ucorelib provides Unicode character type, Unicode text type (internally ropes), and decoder/encoder of UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32.
Release page:
https://github.com/yoriyuki/ucorelib/releases/tag/v0.1.0
ucorelib provides
1. An abstract data type for Unicode character. This prevents you to create illegal Unicode characters, so it is safer than just using integers of Unicode characters.
2. An abstract text data type, internally implemented as ropes. All interface to Text module are purely functional.
3. Code converter from/to UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32
By the way, I am looking for someone who can collaborate with me. Specifically, I am looking for
1. OCaml build system guru
2. OCaml syntax extension guru, to propose a syntax extension for Unicode.
3. XML guru, to make a parser for LDML, Locale Data Markup Language.
Best,
