We're sort of stuck with doing the next version of Xalan-C++. One problem
is that Xerces 1.5 is not usable from our perspective, since it has a huge
memory leak and some pretty serious performance issues. These problems
have been fixed in CVS, but we need to built Xalan-C++ from an official
release.
Of course, we can build Xalan-C++ against Xerces 1.4, but that means
backing out any incompatible changes and going through all that we have to
go through to build and verify everything. That's probably what we'll do,
but it's going to take some time to get there. Of course, many people will
be unhappy with that solution, since they won't have access to the newest
Xerces features.
In the interim, I suggest you get the latest code through anoncvs and build
yourself. If you take the latest nightly Xerces build, you should be able
to build Xalan against that.

Please respond to
xalan-dev
There's been a new version of Xerces C++ (1.5) out for some weeks. That
leaves me wondering:
(a) Is there going to be a new version of Xalan C++ (1.2, I'd assume) any
time soon?
(b) Is it going to be compatible with Xerces 1.5, or Xerces 1.4?
If anyone who knows could answer these questions, I'd appreciate it. Thank
you.
Regards,
Peter.
