ICU 36.1 Desupport & Installing ICU 52.1
Please note that with Banner® General 8.12.2, ICU 36.1 will no longer be supported.
This means you will need to upgrade to ICU Version 521 on ALL JOBSUB Servers before you apply this upgrade.
The upgrade is relatively straightforward on Linux/Unix systems:
- Download ICU 52.1 https://sourceforge.net/projects/icu/files/ICU4C/52.1/icu4c-52_1-src.tgz/download.
- Perform sets below as root
- Set the environment variable $ICU_HOME to /usr/local/src
- Place and extract (tar -zxf icu4c-52_1-src.tgz) under $ICU_HOME It should create a folder called icu here)
- cd $ICU_HOME/icu/source
- run ./runConfigureICU [Your OS this would be "./runConfigureICU Linux/gcc" if you're on Linux)
- Set the $BANNER_HOME environment variable for the root user, and then run $BANNER_HOME/general/misc/copyICU521.shl
- make clean
- make
- make install
- Once the "make install" completes, login as the banner user
- (as banner) cd $BANNER_HOME
- sh +x $BANNER_HOME/general/misc/copyICU521_ban.shl
You will then need to grab the updated makefiles & header files.
