[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1347?page=comments#action_59506 ] Wojciech Seliga commented on XERCESC-1347: ------------------------------------------
First See my comments for #1346. I noticed that BCB6 IDE project and makefile from Projects\Win32\BCC.551 do not even attempt to use messages from win32 resources. I understand that somebody has tried and failed (as I did). However it should be documented somewhere (e.g. in build notes for Borland C++). Otherwise such issues could happen again even with BCC.551 (if anybody attempts to switch resources on). Anyhow I definitely recommend cleaning up the mess with makefile for BCB6 (either to remove it or correct). I am offering my help. > Win32MsgLoader does not work with Borland C++ 6.0 > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: XERCESC-1347 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1347 > Project: Xerces-C++ > Type: Bug > Components: Build > Versions: 2.6.0 > Environment: win32, Borland C++ Builder 6.0 Update 4 > Reporter: Wojciech Seliga > Priority: Minor > > After succesful compilation and linking of XercesLib.dll using BCB6 makefile > (modifed as described in #1346), it turned out that messages (e.g. coming > from exceptions) do not work correctly (they are always empty). > I analysed the sources. > There is a class responsible for retrieving messages from DLL resources (on > win32 platform only) - Win32MsgLoader. > Inside Win32MsgLoader.cpp DllMain() is defined, in which current HINSTANCE is > remembered in globalModuleHandle.
