DK created XERCESC-1989:
---------------------------
Summary: Xerces 3.1.1 Xerces.Lib fails to build with new Visual
Studio 2012 RC
Key: XERCESC-1989
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1989
Project: Xerces-C++
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build
Affects Versions: 3.1.1
Environment: Windows 7, new Visual Studio 2012 RC. Building x86
XercesLib.
Reporter: DK
Priority: Minor
Error during resource compile. I raised it as an issue with MS Connect and the
response states that it is due to a change in "winnt.h" where previous warning
messages are now error messages.
Text from MS reply is:
The reason this is a build error now, instead of a build warning, is due to a
change in winnt.h. If you look at line 141, you'll reach the #error statement
on this line because none of the architecture constants are defined.
There are a couple of ways to work around this build error, in order of
preference:
1. Remove the #include <winnt.h> statement from your .rc files if it's not
needed.
2. Replace the #include <winnt.h> statement with #include <windows.h> or
#include <winnt.rh>
3. If you really need to keep the #include <winnt.h> statement in place, you
can define one of the architecture constants before the #include line, for
example:
#define _X86_
#include <winnt.h>
I have tested '2' by changing 'winnt.h' to 'winnt.rh' on lines 11 & 87 in
xerces-c-3.1.1\src\xercesc\util\MsgLoaders\Win32\Version.rc and it now compiles
and links without error.
Obviously, your choice of option suggested by MS that you wish to employ.
