I need to build/install xerces (or xml4c) on multiple unix platforms sharing
a single file system. As far as I can tell, the makefiles for xerces do
not follow the usual configure conventions so I can't do this in a straight-
forward way. In particular, I'd like to be able to invoke the configure
script with options
--prefix=common-files-directory --exec-prefix=arch-dependent-dir
Then, after building the release, if I do
make install
the shareable and any architecture-dependent public header files should
go into the exec-prefix directory; other public header files should go
into the prefix directory. Usually configure scripts are set up so that
exec-prefix defaults to prefix; then those not dealing with multiple
architectures don't have to do anything special.
1. Is there a reason that the xerces makefiles have not been set up
to make use of exec-prefix?
2. Is there some other way to accomplish what I'm after?
Thanks,
Joanne
