ICU API for posix

AB,

this sounds interesting.

Since android is not fully posix compatible and  bionic is lacking in this deparment maybe this is worth a look:

It allows to target IOS, OS X, Windows, Linux ...

mORMot is aimed mainly at microservices on servers but I am also interested in an other use case:  local database access for desktop and mobile apps.

Android has good enough ICU support.
At least for the TICULibrary we included today.
In fact, we used the FPC Android cwstring unit as reference.

Wow, even more exciting. I can see in the source now the part which loads ICU for android. 
Could  not find TICULibrary yet... I assume it is still work in progress.

TICULIbrary is in the mormot.core.os.pas unit of mORMot 2.

On mORMot 1.18, you have the ICU methods in TExternalLibraries of SynFPCLinux.pas.
