This is precisely what I'm talking about. Read my words "part of it" as a "compile-time option".

It consists of only two files: LayoutEngine-HB.cpp and LayoutEngine-HB.h. These two files should be copied to ICU's source/layout/ folder. Then the wrapper can be built by compiling the following files:

After that I created a simpler wrapper, one that consists of only one .cpp and .h file and which can be simply placed in ICU's source/layout/ folder and built as an alternative ICU Layout Engine.
