[PATCH v3 1/2] kernelbase/locale: Implement comparison on top of official unicode weight tables

[Fabian Maurer]

Hello Alexandre,

thanks for your reply.

No problem, if you tell me what needs improvement.

your approach

What features exactly are you referring to?

> It also looks very inefficient

Why inefficient? We can't just compare character for character, since the
sortkey values don't always align like that. But then again, most strings
should get the "early exit", which is a lot cheaper.

Well, the tests should already cover what's necessary. What do you think is
missing?

> Also as already mentioned, you should be working on the latest (Win10)
table, not the one from Win7.

Might have missed that, where was that? As i understood from your last mail,
the code needs to test and give the correct results for all windows version,
especially win10.
But why do we care about which tables are used as long as the results are the
same on all windows versions? The table version is only relevant when it comes
to differences between windows versions. The Win7 table was easier to handle,
so I picked that one.
