ICU library

[kb...@informatica.com]

I am still unclear about the ICU functionality. On Solaris do I need to get
ICU libraries to run the parser. If I use a Japanese XML supplied with the
icu pr-eucjp.xml, the parser does not parse it. However for a English file
it does. 
However on the windows platform, it always asks to load the ICU DLL.
Could someone clear up the confusion on when to use the ICU libraries and
when to not.

Of course, if you don't have ICU, you won't get Shift_JIS support either,
unless you use iconv or the Win32 transcoder.

Please read the FAQ for the differences b/w Xerces-C and XML4C. Xerces-C
binaries do/should not need any ICU files on any platform.
