Re: Building with ICL on windows

[Soheila Bashardoust-Tajali]

Hi Nick,

 You don't need to change the "tools.ini" to run the intel compiler. All
you need are the Makefiles, to do your build completely.
So first use the IDE with "XalanICU.dsw" to make all the Makefiles, and
then try the following command (eg) on the prompt:

NMAKE /f BuildMessages.mak CFG="LocalizationWithICU - Win32 Release"
CPP=icl.exe

Has anybody succeeded with successfully building Xalan+ICU with ICL?  I
had no trouble at all with xerces+icu with ICL, but I'm not even sure
where to start with Xalan.  Even if I set the compiler selection tool
to ICL, it still invokes cl.exe to build it.  If I change tools.ini in
Utils/Localization to include MAKE_PARAMS=CPP=icl.exe, that works for a
few seconds, but then stops with the following error:

NMAKE: fatal error U1077:
'..\..\..\..\..\Build\Win32\VC6\Release\MsgCreator.exe' : return code
'0x8'
Stop.
Error executing nmake.

Any ideas?  Also, is there any way to build this from the command line,
as Xerces does, for instance?  We don't use MSVC for our builds, so
it's going to be a royal pain if we have to go to it to build Xalan.
