Change charClass for Bengali Khanda-ta (U+09CE)
Last modified: 2012-08-18 17:48:56 UTC
Unicode 5.0 introduces the Bengali character Khanda-ta at position (U+09CE). The attached patch updates indic-ot-class-tables.c to reflect that. This patch is only partially correct, since khanda-ta cannot be followed by a vowel sign - we have a similar issue with the Bengali vowel signs A/E as well. We need a seperate charClass to handle this. More information on the bug with test cases, screenshots is at http://bengalionline.net/rendering-bugs/rendering-bugs.html (thanks to Deepayan Sarkar for putting it up).
Created attachment 85994 [details] [review] Patch against latest SVN trunk.
Forgot to put in some references: 1. The A/E handling bugs is at bug id #118299 2. http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0980.pdf is the latest chart for Bengali
Can someone please take a look at this bug please? The resolution suggested would provide the locale to write some common words with compunds of 09CE.
We've merged the HarfBuzz branch. Closing obsolete.
