[INFO] Building xsec_lib using VC9

["J. Steinhilper" <xs...@spamgourmet.com>]

Hi,

Sorry for putting this on the mailing list, but I don't know if it's worth
reporting it as BUG.

I discovered a really minor issue when compiling the xsec lib VC9 project from
the santuario trunk (rev. 1033870):

The cpp file 'XSECCryptoProvider.cpp' is missing in the 'Project'
(xsec_lib\enc\XSECCryptoProvider.cpp').
This will cause linker errors caused by the non-existing exports from the cpp
module ;-)

=> Adding the existing file to the project will fix it.

I hope this info will somebody help in saving time...


Regards,
Joerg

Not systematically, but both of them are largely proven compatible with the standards insofar as they support them.

If you're not using features they don't support.

Compatibiliy of XML Signature generated using Java and C++ implementation of Apache XML security

["Mazumdar, Subrata (Subrata)" <ma...@avaya.com>]

Hi,
Has anybody done any compatibility test of XML signature generated using
Java and C++ versions Apache XML Security tool ? 
Can I assume that a valid signature generated C++ componenet will be
verified  correctly by the Java component and vice-versa?
I undersatnd that they are two independnet components but what is the
paint of using standard if they are compatible. 
Thanks.

The RC is out. But you should pull the latest svn trunk and try that set of
project files, since I patched them.

Many thanks for your effort for clarifying this :-)

You suggested in the prev. post, that it would be feasible to submit a fixed
version of the VC9 project files for the next release candidate.
In short: I could provide this if desired...
But to be honest, I'm not familiar with the development process at Apache and I
don't know when this point (Release Candidate) would be reached.

FYI, I took a stab by hand on this for all the legacy build files. There was
more missing than just that one source file, so that's why it's likely to be
wrong. Basically I'll maintain them based on whatever input I get and in any
given release, they're likely to be hit or miss.

There are likely to be a number of problems with anything but VC10 because I
reorganized the handling of the headers, and the only compiler I use now is
VC10. I suspect the next release will break all of the prior projects, but
I'll see what I can do. I don't have the actual IDEs to fix them.

My best suggestion is that somebody who needs them should take the release
candidate, "fix" the solution files, and submit them back as a patch.
