As a special service "SfR Fresh" has tried to format the requested source page into HTML format using source code syntax highlighting with prefixed line numbers. Alternatively you can here view or download the uninterpreted source code file. That can be also achieved for any archive member file by clicking within an archive contents listing on the first character of the file(path) respectively on the according byte size field.

    2 The genren.pl script is used to generate source/common/unicode/urename.h header file, which is needed for renaming the ICU exported names. 
    3 
    4 This script is intended to be used on Linux, although it should work on any platform that has Perl and nm command. Makefile may need to be updated, it's not 100% portable. 
    5 
    6 The following instructions are for Linux version.
    7 - urename.h file should be generated after implementation is complete for a release.
    8 - the version number for a release should be set according to the list in source/common/unicode/uversion.h
    9 - In this [genren] directory, run 
   10 
   11     "make install-header"
   12 
   13 - urename.h will be updated in icu/source/common/unicode/urename.h  **in your original source directory**
   14 - Eyeball the new file for errors - you can compare it to icu/source/common/unicode/urename.h.old
   15 - Another good way to check the file is a side by side diff.  After the above 'make install-header':
   16 
   17   diff --side-by-side urename.sort urename.old.sort  | more
   18 
   19 - Other make targets here
   20 
   21     clean      - cleans out intermediate files
   22     urename.h  -just builds ./urename.h
