Hi Gareth,
xerces-c (current CVS) won't compile on cygwin (at least since March
05). I think this is because the cygwin people have changed the linker
arguments syntax of gcc, leading to the mentioned errors in the linking
stage. (Maybe using an old version of cygwin won't fail).
I've been digging into this problem last week and changed the related
Makefiles in xercesc so that the library will be built fine. Note that
the order of the linker arguments is significant and cannot be
expressed with the previously used EXTRA_LINK_OPTIONS-scheme.
I can build (and use) my xerces-related applications with my standard
build rules (e.g. Xalan works as well), but the xercesc/tests won't
build (tons of unresolved symbols). I didn't understand yet why this
happens.
Would you like me to further investigate this problem?
Axel
