There are several ways of solving this problem. In code I deploy, I simply link everything statically, which means I created a static library from xerces by hand (using ar -r, not the best way, but appropriate for me). When I build my test drivers, I don't want to waste the space for each test executable so I compile in the .so path to the executable by adding an option like this to the link cycle (this works for Linux): -Wl,"-rpath,/home/bsettlem/xerces-c/lib"
If this isn't what you need, please explain what I'm missing. Brad On Tuesday 16 April 2002 04:11 pm, Aelony, Avram wrote: > hi, > > I have written a c++ application that uses the Xerces C++ parser.
