Subject: Link Errors for Templates in Shared Library

I downloaded and built Xerces ver 2.3 on Solaris 2.6 using the Sun C++ Workshop Compiler 5.0 as a shared library.
There were no errors reported in the build.

When I try to build the samples, I get 'Undefined Symbol' errors for templates.
Some of the messages are:

I did a 'nm' on the Xerces shared library and found that these symbols were not defined in the library.
Its as if the instantiated templates did not get added into the shared library.

Does anybody else know the solution to this problem?

Thanks,
Saurabh
