{quote}Regarding XML, why not simply introduce a variable like is available for
APR already?

I think you can set that when generating the files. At least from the command
line it would be -DXMLLIB_DLL_DIR=/path/to/dll/dir. I just don't think we can
do it automatically, since it can change depending on how APR is compiled.
Alternatively, we could depend on expat directly ourselves, instead of it being
a transitive dependency through APR.
{quote}Currently it seems I need to add "sed.exe" etc. to the PATH of the user.

Yes, that's currently how it's setup. The tests require it at least in the
test path, so unless we have local copies being on the user's PATH would be the
most logical place to look.

> I just tested building log4cxx using CMAKE and Visual Studio 2019 Community.
> Things failed and I want to use this bug to document everything that I've
> found, because for some things I'm not sure how to handle them properly. Will
> create a new branch to maintain the fixes I came along, so that those can at
> best be later reviewed by others. The branch of interest is currently named
> "logcxx_510_cmake_vs2019_compat".
