Hi John,
You can look at what we've done in the latest code, but it's pretty much
what you've concluded. We now have a macro called XALAN_CLASSIC_IOSTREAMS
to differentiate between using the std namespace and any particular
IOstreams implementation.
By the way, you really should plan an upgrade to a later version of Xalan
sometime soon. Version 1.2 is quite long in the tooth, and has a number of
bugs.
Hope that helps...

01/08/2004 01:05 Subject: Building Xalan 1.2 on
HP/UX with aCC A.03.33 and STLport 4.5
PM
Please respond
to xalan-c-users
Xalan 1.2 has only one macro to enable or disable the use of namespaces...
i.e. XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES
This is all fine when building on HP/UX with either -AP (classic STL) or
-AA (standard STL) by defining XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES for -AP and undefining
it for -AA...
However, the combination of using -AP with STLport 4.5 (configured to use
old iostreams from the OS) results in the a mix.
Basically, the STL containers are all in the "std" namespace as defined by
STLport,
however, the IO entities are not, as they come directly from the OS...
As a result, the only way I can think of to get this to build is to
introduce
a new macro, XALAN_NO_IO_NAMESPACES to control the use of the namespace std
on io streams, etc...
By default XALAN_NO_IO_NAMESPACES is defined if XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES is
defined.
For HP-UX, if _HP_NAMESPACE_STD is defined, then -AA was used and
everything is
in the namespace 'std'; otherwise -AP is used (the default) and nothing is
in 'std'
as far as the os is concerned. If STLport is subsequently used, then I
#undef XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES
#define XALAN_NO_IO_NAMESPACES
I had to go through many of the files to change the use of
XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES to
XALAN_NO_IO_NAMESPACES in order to affect this change.
Question: is there a better way? I am stuck with Xalan 1.2 and HP/UX 3.33
with -AP
and I'm using STLport in order to work around old issues from the
OS' STL...
Comments?
Thanks,
John E. Bossom
