ReadMe for Unicode CLDR version 38

Last updated: 2020-Oct-21

This is the final release version of CLDR 38.

Important notes for CLDR 36 and later:

  • The CLDR repository has switched from subversion to git.
  • Data in the main CLDR repository now includes some elements with the value “↑↑↑” indicating that translators have explicitly determined that the inherited value should always be used.
  • To generate data in the form that was used for CLDR 35.1 and earlier, in which “↑↑↑” is resolved appropriately (either removed or replaced with an apropriate value) and other minimization is performed, a new tool GenerateProductionData is provided (command-line options provide the ability to specify source and destination directory, among other things).
  • CLDR data that has been processed by GenerateProductionData is available in the parallel “cldr-staging” repository.

For further information:

Tools Quickstart:

  1. Build cldr.jar:
    ant -f tools/java/build.xml jar
  2. List available tools:
    java -jar tools/java/cldr.jar
  3. List less-than-documented tools:
    java -jar tools/java/cldr.jar -l
  4. Run the XML Validator against some file.xml:
    java -jar tools/java/cldr.jar validate ../path/to/your/file.xml
