A prior email that I also sent indicated that you needed to get them from Microsoft. Let me quote what I said:
"Additionally, one of the idl files [in Xerces] read: // if you get an "Cannot open input file" error here // then you most probably do not have a recent // Microsoft Platform SDK in your include path // // See http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/build.html#BuildCOM import "xmldom.idl"; "So you will need to ensure that you have the Platform SDK too, and on your include path." ============== Installing the Core and Internet Development SDK's from the following site will provide you the proper files. Both the documentation and source indicate this. See ~/xerces-c-src1_7_0/doc/html/build-misc.html#WinCOM Go to: http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/ The Internet SDK is especially important as it provides the necessary idl file. * The core platform SDK no longer has the files. * MSXML 4.1 does not provide the files. If it did in the past, it does no longer. Bob At 03:55 PM 5/22/2002 -0600, you wrote: >I have deleted all the files and readded them but the xmldom.idl file is >still not on my computer.
