2004-06-08  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Make calendar_data readonly, to match the
	const-ness in the runtime.

2004-05-28  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs : In fact GetAllDateTimePatterns() returns
	  non-unique results.  Just reordered return values looking at MS
	  invariant behavior.

2004-05-27  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs : 'U' is in fact the same as 'F' for pattern
	  strings. Thanks to kangaroo for the hint.

2004-05-27  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs : Fixed longtimes and shorttimes (exchanged).

2004-05-27  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs : Added some string[] fields for
	  GetAllDateTimePatterns(char). The fields will be filled in metadata
	  and culture info table. Added improved patterns for 
	  GetAllDateTimePatterns() (right now works only for invariant).
	* CultureInfo.cs : Use InvariantInfo for InvariantCulture.

2004-05-26  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs :
	  hack implementation for GetAllDateTimePatterns().

2004-05-17  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Invariant culture has the invariant culture as
	its parent....<insert joke about the south>. It is readonly so we
	can return this.
	
2004-05-17  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Properify error messages when invalid lcid's are
	used.

2004-05-15  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Initialize optional calendars. A pointer to an
	array of ints is passed back from the runtime to the CultureInfo
	object. The ints store the calendar type and any optional data
	needed to construct the calendar.
	
2004-05-14  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* HebrewCalendar.cs: Stubbed ToFourDigitYear()

	* HijriCalendar.cs: Stubbed HijriAdjustment

2004-05-13  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: You can access DateTimeFormat and NumberFormat
	from the invariant culture.
	
2004-05-13  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: DateTimeFormat and NumberFormat can not be
	accessed for neutral cultures.
	
2004-04-30  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* StringInfo.cs: 
	* TextElementEnumerator.cs: Implemented

2004-04-27  Jackson Harper <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Make specific names lower case, because all data
	in the culture info tables is lowercase.
	
2004-04-25  Andreas Nahr <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Call invariant String.ToLower
	* RegionInfo.cs: Call invariant String.ToUpper

2004-04-11  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs : All GetXXXGroupSizes() should not return
	  internal array. Return clone as MS.NET does.

	  There still looks somewhere breaking CurrentInfo.

2004-04-08  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs, CultureInfo.cs, NumberFormatInfo.cs, TextInfo.cs:
	Made those serializable-compatible with MS.NET: modified fields names to 
	match MS.NET ones, and in CultureInfo added a flag to control when a
	deserialized instance need to be initialized.

2004-04-07  Jackson Harper  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Use new ICUless implementation in the runtime.
	* CompareInfo.cs: Get ICU name from a cultureinfo object instead
	of looking it up in the culture map.
	* RegionInfo.cs: Dont check if the LCID is neutral unless its not
	found in the switch. Avoids an icall.
	
2004-03-24  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: this fixes bug #56000 for me. And it doesn't
	break anything as NumberFormatInfo is sealed.

2004-02-14  Atsushi Enomoto  <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs : CurrentInfo should not return clone every 
	  time (MS.NET returns the same object; try object.ReferenceEquals()).

2004-02-08 David Sheldon <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: When parsing the percentages, put the data 
	  into PercentDecimalDigits/PercentGroupLengths, rather than trashing
	  the NumberDecimatDigits etc. This also means that the percent format
	  info gets set.

2004-01-27  David Sheldon <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: InitPatterns: it seems that the patterns in 
	  ICU use digitPattern, not zeroPattern for the spaces after the 
	  decimal point. 

2004-01-12  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Parent returns null when lcid == parent_lcid. Fixes
	bug #52102.

2003-12-20 Ben Maurer  <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs: Replace blah == "" with blah.Length == 0.
	MUCH faster. Note, we dont need to check for nulls, because
	the properties were used in other places.

2003-12-19  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs: Added assorted shortcuts when comparing empty
	strings.  Fixed offset and length range checks to flag when <0.
	Broke test that offset >= string length to match actual ms
	behaviour (sigh.)  Fixes bug 52310.

2003-12-06  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs: Don't build strings in Compare, IndexOf and
	LastIndexOf methods.  Avoid the icall in IndexOf and LastIndexOf
	if the search parameter is a char and the CompareOptions include
	Ordinal.

2003-12-04  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs: Implement the deserialization callback

	* CultureInfo.cs: Allow CompareInfo to see the CultureMap so that
	it can construct the ICU collator itself

2003-12-02  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: Helper called by runtime locale
	construction from ICU.  Patch by Mohammad DAMT ([email protected]).

2003-12-01  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Culture name creation is case-insensitive.
	Implemented CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture.

	* CompareInfo.cs: Fix IndexOf and LastIndexOf so that they work
	for combining characters.

2003-11-05  Pedro Martínez Juliá  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs: Hack an era for US culture. We must look
	for other ways to get the ERA string.

2003-10-21  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* TextInfo.cs: 
	* CultureInfo.cs: Implement TextInfo.GetHashCode().  Fixes bug
	49923.

2003-10-09  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: Implemented, with internal calls to ICU apart
	from the Invariant culture.
	
	* SortKey.cs:
	* CompareInfo.cs: Implemented

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs: Fixed the worst of the formatting,
	construct default FullDateTimePattern on the fly.

2003-08-06  Andreas Nahr <[email protected]>

	* Locale.cs: Removed (added new version to Assembly directory)

2003-07-23  Duncan Mak  <[email protected]>

	* DateTimeFormatInfo.cs: theInvariantDateTimeFormatInfo should not
	be public.

2003-05-11  Ben Maurer  <[email protected]>

	* *Calendar.cs: Implemented the TwoDigitYearMax property.
	
2003-04-22  Pedro Martínez Juliá  <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: Method CurrentInfo now returns the "real"
	CurrentInfo (Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat).

2003-02-27  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs:
	(NameToID): make it case insensitive and use a hashtable instead of
	comparing all the strings.

Mon Nov 18 13:02:09 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs: implemented Equals and GetHashCode.

2002-10-17  Duncan Mak  <[email protected]>

	* CultureInfo.cs (TextInfo): return a TextInfo in the property.

	* TextInfo.cs (ToLower):
	(ToTitleCase): Implemented.

2002-09-12  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	* ThaiBuddhistCalendar.cs: 
	* TextInfo.cs: 
	* TaiwanCalendar.cs: 
	* RegionInfo.cs: 
	* KoreanCalendar.cs: 
	* JulianCalendar.cs: 
	* JapaneseCalendar.cs: 
	* HijriCalendar.cs: 
	* HebrewCalendar.cs: 
	* GregorianCalendar.cs: 
	* CultureInfo.cs: 
	* CompareInfo.cs: Stub out missing methods

2002-08-15  Tim Coleamn <[email protected]>
	* CompareInfo.cs:
		Stubbed out some methods.

2002-08-14  Dick Porter  <[email protected]>

	methods.

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: Make InvariantInfo.NumberNegativePattern = 1

2002-05-07  Rodrigo Moya <[email protected]>

	* CompareInfo.cs: new basic stub (compiles on Linux, so I assume
	it does not break the build on windows. Sorry if it does).

2002-04-23  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <[email protected]>

	* NumberFormatInfo.cs: always set the values for the invariant culture
	until there are more cultures supported.
