Re: [icu-design] Proposed approach for JB 3950 Need configure option to reverse U_HIDE_DRAFT

[Deborah G. <gol...@ap...>]

That doesn't meet the design objective, which is to reverse the sense =20=

of the flag, not ban draft APIs. There is a need to access draft =20
APIs, but not have them accessible by default.

If U_HIDE_DRAFT is set via configure, then it's impossible to *ever* =20
access draft APIs. The bug requests a configure option to hide draft =20
APIs *by default*, but be able to un-hide them in certain compilation =20=

units.
