Hi Mateusz,
the correct way of building Xerces 3.0 is through the ./configure
script (as you found out at the end of the mail). As for the '/obj'
folder, it could be caused by a typo in a recent commit; in the
meanwhile, disable the ICU message loader by running ./configure
--disable-msgloader-icu
Hope this helps,
Alberto

Hi,
I'm trying to build Xerces from SVN under Linux and I found that
official instructions are not very exact:
http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/build-winunix.html#UNIX
Is there any better manual about building development version of Xerces?
Here is my problem. I checkouted the Xerces and here is my configuration:
mloskot:~/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk$ svn info | grep URL
URL: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xerces/c/trunk
In the manual, there is said to configure:
export XERCESCROOT=/my/path/to/xerces/_svn/trunk
mloskot:~/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk$ echo $XERCESCROOT
/home/mloskot/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk
Next, I should do:
cd $XERCESCROOT/src/xercesc
autoconf
but it fails because there are no autoconf files to operate on under
this location:
mloskot:~/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk/src/xercesc$ ls
com dom framework internal NLS parsers sax sax2 util validators
xinclude
Also, I can not find the runConfigure script in the SVN sources tree.
However, there is ./configure script in the trunk directory:
mloskot:~/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk$ ls configure
configure
so I tried this one:
mloskot:~/dev/apache/xerces/_svn/trunk$ ./configure
...
configure:
configure: Report:
configure: NetAccessor: curl
configure: File Manager: POSIX
configure: Atomic Op Manager: POSIX
configure: Mutex Manager: POSIX
configure: Message Loader: icu
configure: Transcoder: icu
Now, I try to build it:

As the error above says, it can't create directory /obj/.libs:
mkdir -p /obj/.libs
mkdir: cannot create directory `/obj': Permission denied
I wonder *why* it tries to create the 'obj' directory in the root
location ?
Does it mean I have to build Xerces with root privileges?
I'd appreciate if anyone could help me.
Cheers
