Hello,

I am a Nokia engineer and I would like to ask you some questions regarding  
Xerces C++. Our current version is 2.8 in our NetM product. We are planning to 
migrate our product in windows server 2012 x64bit.
My questions regarding Xerces C++ are:
1.  Is version 2.8 compatible with windows64bit?.

Yes, but read the next point

2.  If not, do you believe that we should move to Xerces C++ 3.1.2 for 
compatibility issues?

Generally speaking, Xerces 2.8 is very old and hasn't been updated since Xerces 3 was released (2008). Furthermore, when completing the 64-bit support, we couldn't change a few APIs in order not to break the compatibility (i.e. XMLString v.2.8 uses the 32-bit 'int' and 'unsigned int' to reference sections of the string or its length, while v.3 uses the 64-bit size_t type), so if you plan to use huge values, Xerces 3.1.2 is what you should use.
3. If yes, your latest version is open source or licenced?

Xerces is released under the open source Apache license ( http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0)

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Matina
