11Procedures for building ICU4J data from ICU4C data:
12
13*Setup*
14
15In the following,
16        $icu4c_root is the ICU4C root directory
17        $icu4j_root is the ICU4J root directory
18        $jdk_bin is the JDK bin directory (for the jar tool)
19
201. Download and build ICU4C. For more instructions on downloading and building
21        ICU4C, see the ICU4C readme at:
22        http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/trunk/icu4c/readme.html#HowToBuild
23        (Windows: build as 'x86, Release' otherwise you will have to set 'CFG' differently below.)
24
25    *NOTE* You should do a full rebuild after any data changes.
26
271a.  If you didn't download from GitHub, you will also need the "icu4c-*-data.zip" file.  Unpack this file and replace the icu/source/data directory's contents with the contents of the data directory from the zip file.
28
29
302. Step 2 depends on whether you are on a Windows or a Unix-type
31platform.
32
33*Windows*
34
352a. On the command line, cd to $icu4c_root\source\data.
36
372b. On the command line,
38        nmake -f makedata.mak ICUMAKE=$icu4c_root\source\data\  CFG=x86\Release JAR="$jdk_bin\jar" ICU4J_ROOT=$icu4j_root  icu4j-data-install
39
40       Continue with step 3 below, in Java:
41
42
43*Linux*
44
45        $icu4c_build is the ICU4C root build directory,
46        which is $icu4c_root/source in an in-source build.
47        (in other words, $icu4c_build is where you ran runConfigureICU or configure)
48
492c. On the command line, cd to $icu4c_build/data
50
512d. Do
52        make JAR=$jdk_bin/jar ICU4J_ROOT=$icu4j_root icu4j-data-install
53
54       (You can omit the JAR if it's just jar.)
55
56	Continue with step 3, in Java:
57
58Step 2 on either platform will produce two files: icudata.jar and
59icutzdata.jar in $icu4j_root/main/shared/data.
60
61*Java*
62
633. After the ICU4C-side steps above, build the main target of the
64        ICU4J ant build to unpack the jar files with the following commands:
65
66        cd $icu4j_root
67        ant main
