For xerces-c there are perl scripts under <xerces>/c/scripts directory that will build/package the xerces code to desired target directory. These scripts were made to ease the distribution of the code. However, we do not support any technical questions on the usage of these scripts Please feel free to create any other handy scripts that can make the build easy for the users. We'd be glad to incorporate in our code.

Hi, I was looking into building Xalan-C++ on Solaris and therefor Xerces-C++. I found the build system of Xerces a bit harsh to get along, at least for people new to it. Has there been any discussion about whether to use libtool, and stay a bit closer to the directory-standards in autoconf-automake? It took me a bit of time to realize, that I can't have my own seperate build dir :-(. I was just trying to find out, if Xalan-C++ should mimic the Xerces build process, or wouldn't libtool add a bit of platform-independence. Just curious whether there are reasons against it, or if just nobody volunteered. I would at least try to do so. Axel
