Re: Problems with running samples for Xalan 1.3 on Aix 4.3.

[David N Bertoni/Cambridge/IBM]

You should download Xalan 1.4 and see if this problem persists.  Also, make
sure you are using VisualAge 5.02.  This looks like it's happening deep in
the standard library, so it could be a bug in the 5.0 library.

Just for verification, I downloaded the Xalan 1.3 distribution and tested.
I had no problems building anything and XalanTransform runs without any
problems.

I suspect there is a problem with your local installation of VisualAge for
C++, or you are using an older version.  If you are not using 5.02, make
sure you also rebuild Xerces with your version of the compiler.

Hi,
I am trying to build Xalan 1.3 on Aix4.3 with XLC 5.0.
I am able to build the sources and samples.
Following is my observation while running the samples:
-  When I tried 'DocumentBuilder' and 'SimpleTransform' , they went
through.
    But 'XalanTransform' always gave me segmentation fault. On debugging it
was showing some problem in 'StylesheetHandler.cpp'.

* I am wondering about this behavior.
I guess the samples which come along with the source code , should go
through without any problems.
Also Xalan 1.3 is marked as 'stabilized'  on apache site.

So Am I missing anything very obvious?
Has anybody observed similar problem with samples  with Xalan 1.3?

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks and regards
Amol Potnis
