Re build errors
I have been trying to build the XML4J or the Xerces Java parser on
solaris 2.7. I am using gnu make 3.79.
and these are the subset of the errors i get:
Building Source
make -C src
make[1]: Entering directory `/home2/autonomy/XML4J_3_0_1/src'
make -C com
make[2]: Entering directory `/home2/autonomy/XML4J_3_0_1/src/com'

make[2]: *** [dirs] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home2/autonomy/XML4J_3_0_1/src/com'
I dont understand enough about the make utlity or the unix shell
programming to know what can be done to build it properly. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
The problem is with this piece of code in the Makefile.incl file in the
src directory
dirs::
@if [ -n "$(DIRS)" ]; \
then for i in $(DIRS);do \
echo "$(MAKE) -C $$i"; $(MAKE) -C $$i; \
done; \
fi
Thanks
Ravi
Re: Re build errors
Posted by Eric Ye <er...@locus.apache.org>.
This is a portability bug in the 1.0.3 ( or XML4J3.0.1)makefile, it has been
fixed in the latest version. The problem is that $DIRs could be a empty
string, some make utility can deal with this and some can't.
Best regards
Eric
