Description Denis Sokolovsky 2009-07-04 13:21:27 UTC

DBD::SQLite can be built with ICU extension module. This enables "icu_load_collation" function and usage of collation thru ICU library.

For enable this feature an additional dependance on dev-libs/icu must be setted up and following arguments must be passed to "perl Makefile.PL":
  CCFLAGS=-DSQLITE_ENABLE_ICU LDDLFLAGS="-shared -L/usr/local/lib $(icu-config --ldflags)"

Comment 1 Denis Sokolovsky 2009-07-04 13:55:04 UTC

Oh, forgot one thing: ICU extension can be enabled in described way for >=DBD-SQLite-1.24.

But for older releases file "icu.c" from sqlite source tarball can be placed in addition.

I think that enabling this flag for versions >=1.25 is fair enough.
