Re: Compilation under Borland C++ Builder 5

Hi Christophe,

A couple of things:

   1. Did adding XALAN_XALANDOMCHAR_USHORT_MISMATCH solve any problems?

   2. It looks like you're working from older source code.  Did you get the
   latest from CVS to do the port, or are you working from the 1.1 code?
   If you haven't gotten the latest, it will be much easier if you do that.
   It makes diagnosing problems easier, and means that we can integrate the
   changes much more quickly/

   3. There are some #defines that we should be able to get rid of from the
   Borland header file, but for the time being, a copy of the Visual C++
   one is just find.

Now, as far as the error is concerned -- there should be no problem with
finding a match for that function.  A couple of things to try:

   1. Try adding:

   #include <PlatformSupport/DOMStringHelper.hpp>

   with the other PlatformSupport includes.  This shouldn't be necessary,
   but it's worth a try.

   2. I have a feeling the Borland compiler is confused.  It should be
   matching the following substring() overload in DOMStringHelper.hpp:

     XALAN_PLATFORMSUPPORT_EXPORT_FUNCTION(XalanDOMString)
     substring(
                    const XalanDOMString&          theString,
                    unsigned int              theStartIndex,
                    unsigned int              theEndIndex = unsigned(-1));

   Try the following two variations and see if one of them fixes the
   problem:

   225: if (startsWith(theName, DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparator) == true)
   226: {
   227:    thePrefix = substring(theName, 
DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparatorLength, unsigned(-1));
   228: }

   225: if (startsWith(theName, DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparator) == true)
   226: {
   227a:    unsigned int  theStartIndex = 
DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparatorLength;
   227b
   227c:    thePrefix = substring(theName, theStartIndex);
   228: }

Ok here the modification I've made :

PlatformDefinitions.hpp :
> 61: #if defined (__BORLANDC__)
> 62: #include "BCPPDefinitions.hpp"
> 63: #elif defined(_MSC_VER)

I've created a file BCPPDefinition.hpp (copy of VCPPDefinition.hpp)
and added :
#define XALAN_XALANDOMCHAR_USHORT_MISMATCH

Here the error I have :

[C++ Error] ElemLiteralResult.cpp(227): E2285 Could not find a match for
'substring(const XalanDOMString,const unsigned int &)'

line 227 of ElemLiteralResult.cpp is

225: if (startsWith(theName, DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparator) ==
true)
226: {
227:    thePrefix = substring(theName,
DOMServices::s_XMLNamespaceWithSeparatorLength);
228: }
