This is a stable release.

New in this release:

  • The data tables and algorithms have been updated to Unicode version 15.1.0.
  • New functions u8_pcpy, u16_pcpy, u32_pcpy, similar to mempcpy.
  • New functions uc_indic_conjunct_break_name, uc_indic_conjunct_break_byname, uc_indic_conjunct_break.
  • New functions uc_is_property_prepended_concatenation_mark, uc_is_property_id_compat_math_start, uc_is_property_id_compat_math_continue, uc_is_property_ids_unary_operator and new constants UC_PROPERTY_PREPENDED_CONCATENATION_MARK, UC_PROPERTY_ID_COMPAT_MATH_START, UC_PROPERTY_ID_COMPAT_MATH_CONTINUE, UC_PROPERTY_IDS_UNARY_OPERATOR.
  • New constant _libunistring_unicode_version.
  • The UTF-8 decoder functions, especially u8_mbtouc, are now more Unicode Standard compliant.
  • The *printf functions no longer support the %n directive, for security reasons.
  • Fixed a bug in the *printf functions: In the %U, %lU, %llU directives, a negative width given as an argument did not trigger left-justification.
  • The functions u16_strstr and u32_strstr now operate in worst-case linear time.
