Camomile is a Unicode library for objective caml (a. k. a. OCaml or O'Caml) language. Camomile provides Unicode character type, UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32 strings, conversion to/from about 200 encodings, collation and locale-sensitive case mappings, and more. The library is currently designed for Unicode Standard 3.2.

Conformance

The library is designed for Unicode Standard version 3.2. Normalisers (NFD, NFKD, NFC, NFKC) and collator (string comparison) pass the conformance tests defined Unicode Technical Reports. (see the relevant part of camomile-test.) The collator is also tested to Canadian, Thai and Japanese standards with their locales. There is no problem except handling ø in Canadian standard.
