Hi everyone,
I have been trying to build xalan-c 1.10 and have failed miserably. I
have seen the previous messages on the problem and know the latest svn
fixes the problem. So I will try to follow this approach, but I cannot
use the latest if it does not have release status. So I wanted to ask
the questions that Hans Smit asked in a post on
September 24, 2007:
I'm curious as to why you think having "release status" confers any
benefit. The current SVN is more stable and bug-free than the 1.10
release. Also, I'll be checking in project files for VS2008, along with
64-bit build configurations, and some tweaks to allow building 64-bit
Windows binaries.
1) When is the latest SVN going to be promoted to release?
I have no idea. There are a number of patches that need to be integrated,
and committers' time is very limited right now.
2) What is/will it's version number be?
I would imagine 1.11
3) what version of Xerces is required? 2.8?
We've a pretty good history of maintaining compatibility with earlier
Xerces-C releases. I would imagine you could use 2.6 and 2.7, if not
earlier versions.
4) Are there any release notes available that outline the changes made
since v1.10.0?
Your best bet is to look at the Jira issues closed since the last release,
as all commits (except minor tweaks) will have a corresponding issue.
Dave
