Hi, Thanks for getting back to me. The version of AIX our system currently uses is 5.3. I see you mention its an OS limitation and that not much can be done to resolve it.
Are there any methods to getting around this issue? For example, modifiying the actual Makefile and building the "libxalan-c110.0.a" library differently... Any further help would be appreciated greatly. Thanks, Regards Paul Thomas. -----Original Message----- From: David Bertoni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 March 2006 17:52 To: xalan-c-users@xml.apache.org Subject: Re: Library Compilation error with Xalan 1.10 on AIX 64bit Thomas, Paul (GF-X) wrote: > Hi, > > I am currently attempting to compile both the new versions of Xerces > 2.7 and Xalan 1.10 on my 64bit AIX environment.

I haven't seen an error like this for a very long time. What version of AIX are you running? Dave
