Hi Chris,
There is no built Xerces binary currently supplied for Mac OS X. That
doesn't mean we wouldn't post submissions.
There are at least five flavors of Xerces for Mac OS: CodeWarrior classic
library, CodeWarrior carbon library, CodeWarrior Mach-O framework, Project
Builder framework, Command line built dylib. Each flavor is distinct, and
distinctly incompatible, with all the rest.
If I had to pick a flavor of build to provide prebuilt binaries for, it
would probably be the command line build. Apple has even provided a machine
to apache (moof.apache.org) on which builds could presumably be done,
perhaps as part of the regular Xerces build process.
Comments?

Thanks for the reply...
I'd also be interested in seeing a gcc-built mach-o lib available. I think that would have the widest use - Darwin PPC as well as MacOS X. If this could be a part of the regular build process that would be wonderful, otherwise I may offer a submission. Custom command-line tools linked against the dylib can always be used privately by Cocoa and bundled Carbon apps as well; I'm using a validating sax parser from a Cocoa app this way. Maybe some samples or documentation of these kinds of strategies would encourage folks in the face of all the formats you mentioned (with the exception of Classic). Is there an official maintainer of MacOS-target aspects of xerces-c whom I could contact, or is this the proper forum?
