Description
ICU4J is Lucene's biggest dependency. Several attempts have been made to utilize various alternatives:
But we ran into several issues:
- Lack of support for 32/64 bit
- Lack of support for .NET Standard Platforms
- Lack of features, and problems when trying to implement them
- Lack of thread safety
We finally ended up doing a direct port of about 40% of ICU4J's features in order to support Lucene.NET. The project is named ICU4N, and is progressing in an external GitHub repository. There are several up-for-grabs issues that we could use some help with to get Lucene.NET into production.
