I build Xerces, but I don't use GNU make, so I had to figure out how to build it. I think that you're in a similar situation, for different reasons. (In my case, it wasn't the absence of GNU make, but a desire to fit the library into our existing build scheme that motivated the exercise.) Presumably the powers that be recognize that restricting toolsets sometimes entails additional costs (like adapting makefiles). It's a bit of work, but it gives you a *lot* of control. Worth it in my case; maybe not in yours.

If you look at the documentation for Xalan 1.4, you'll see that it was built with Xerces-C 2.1, and that is the only version of Xerces that will work. When one of the libraries changes its minor version number, that signals the library is not binary-compatible with an earlier version. You also will not be able to use XML4C 5.1, because that was based on Xerces-C 2.2. If you download Xerces-C 2.1, and set up the symlink as appropriate, you should have no problems. Just out of curiousity, if you have a compiler available, why can't you rebuild from sources?

I have installed Xerces 2.2 for AIX using Visual Age C++ 6.0 and have verified that it is working correctly. the Xerces sample programs all work. however, it doesn't have a library named libxerces-c.a. creating a symbolic link from libxml4c51.0.so to libxerces-c.a doesn't work. it creates many undefined symbols from the dynamic linker when I try to run one of the Xalan binaries. I have no ability to recompile Xerces or Xalan, so I have to work with downloading various versions of Xerces C++ or Xalan. is there a set of versions that are compatible directly? I am running AIX 5.1 with Visual Age C++ 6.0.
