Thanks Tinny, I finally went for IconvGNU use as a transcoder, instead of 'native'. ICU is a too heavy change for us now.
Maybe the online documentation could be improved on that important topic : . Emphasis is brought on ICU, and very little on iconv . XML4C is said to be licensed as Apache+X, which is nice, but on IBM download site, it is something like 90 days evaluation, all rights at IBM . IconvGNU is not listed as a possible value for -t compilation flag on the web site (only icu, Iconv400, Iconv390, IconvFBSD are), whereas it is the Linux iconv. Shared libraries are located under /usr/lib/gconv/*.so in Redhat 8 for example. (only -t <transcoder> can be 'icu', 'Iconv400', 'Iconv390', 'IconvFBSD' or 'native') . Iconv should be the default transcoder instead of native ? This means replacing the example build line located in http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/build-winunix.html#UNIX : runConfigure -plinux -cgcc -xg++ -minmem -nsocket -tnative -rpthread by runConfigure -plinux -cgcc -xg++ -minmem -nsocket -tIconvGNU -rpthread Well, it's just thoughts, but all that would have saved us a bunch of time. Thanks again -----Message d'origine----- De : Tinny Ng [mailto:tng-xml@;ca.ibm.com] Envoy� : mercredi 13 novembre 2002 19:47 � : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : Re: problem with Japanese under Linux Redhat 8.0 Nikko, By default, Xerces-C++ binary is built with native transcoder and the number of encoding supported depends the ability of the system. So your Windows system library may support Shift-JIS while your Linux system doesn't. If you don't want to rely on the system, then you can rebuild your parser using ICU Transcoder which supports over 100 different encodings. See http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/build-misc.html#ICUPerl and http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/faq-distrib.html#faq-2 for details.
