.NET maintains its own table of characters and their corresponding categories, which ensures that a specific version of a .NET implementation running on different platforms returns identical character category information. On .NET Core running on Linux and macOS, character category information is provided by [International Components for Unicode](http://site.icu-project.org/) libraries.

In addition, .NET supports string comparison and sorting based on the Unicode standard. In versions of the .NET Framework through the [!INCLUDE[net_v40_long](~/includes/net-v40-long-md.md)], the .NET Framework maintains its own table of string data. This is also true of versions of the .NET Framework starting with the [!INCLUDE[net_v45](~/includes/net-v45-md.md)] running on Windows 7. Starting with the [!INCLUDE[net_v45](~/includes/net-v45-md.md)] running on Window 8 and later versions of the Windows operating system, the runtime delegates string comparison and sorting operations to the operating system. On .NET Core, string comparison and sorting information is provided by [International Components for Unicode](http://site.icu-project.org/) libraries. The following table lists the versions of .NET and the versions of the Unicode Standard on which character comparison and sorting are based.

> You should always call a method overload that makes the intent of your method call clear. For example, instead of calling the <xref:System.String.Compare%28System.String%2CSystem.String%29> method to perform a culture-sensitive comparison of two strings by using the conventions of the current culture, you should call the <xref:System.String.Compare%28System.String%2CSystem.String%2CSystem.StringComparison%29> method with a value of <xref:System.StringComparison.CurrentCulture?displayProperty=nameWithType> for the `comparisonType` argument.
