Type XMLCh is unknown when using a 'C' compiler including XalanCAPI.h to build a transformation program.
The include of xercesc/util/Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp is not invoked when macro (__cplusplus) is undefined. This is where XMLCh is defined. The fix is to edit/patch xalanc/Include/PlatformDefinitions to include "xercesc/util/Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp" when (__cplusplus) is undefined. For C++ compilers, (__cplusplus) is defined and "xercesc/util/XercesDefs.hpp" includes the xercesc/util/Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp file. The XercesDefs.hpp is incompatible with 'C' compilers because C++ namespace support is not recognized. Here is my recommended change to file: xalanc/Include/PlatformDefinitions.hpp to resolve this issue (JIRA XALANC-708). 00019 #if !defined(PLATFORMDEFINITIONS_HEADER_GUARD_1357924680) 00020 #define PLATFORMDEFINITIONS_HEADER_GUARD_1357924680 00021 00022 #if defined(__cplusplus) 00023 # include "xercesc/util/XercesDefs.hpp" 00024 #else 00025 /* Include xercesc autoconf to define XMLCh when using a 'C' compiler. */ 00026 # include "xercesc/util/Xerces_autoconf_config.hpp" 00027 # include "xercesc/util/XercesVersion.hpp" 00028 #endif The XercesVersion.hpp is also safe to include into 'C' program source.
