Environment var XERCESCROOT
---------------------------
Key: XERCESC-1432
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1432
Project: Xerces-C++
Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Versions: 2.6.0
Environment: Mac OS 10.4 / Darwin / GCC
Reporter: Richard Clarke
Priority: Minor
Hi,
In the doc page
xerces/doc/html/build-other.html#Mac
the instructions for building xercesc from the command line read
setenv XERCESCROOT xerces-c-directory
however since Apple switched from tcsh to the bash shell by default
(with Mac OS 10.3, I think) the setenv command is no longer available.
I used
export XERCESCROOT=xerces-c-directory
but got caught out because dragging that directory from the Finder onto
the terminal window left a trailing / character at the end of the path
which broke the build. It would be helpful if this could be mentioned.
Incidentally, xerces seems to have survived OS 10.4 and GCC 4.0 under
Darwin without trauma. I'm impressed.
Regards,
Richard Clarke
