Unicode bidi text algorithm in C#?

Question

Is there a C# version of the Unicode algorithm that takes a Unicode string and breaks it into runs that can be correctly rendered? Each run should be either left-to-right or right-to-left.

We understand this is part of the Java ICU4J, but that is a large library, and we're only looking for this specific functionality, to render text correctly.

Answer 1

This is the unicode standard for bidi handling:

Implementations:

1. JAVA
2. C++

I'm sure you will be able to convert them to c# fairly simply
