SAX Parsing

[Peter Schmidt <Pe...@adv.sonybpe.com>]

Hi:
I am new to the Xerces library for C++. My programming platforms are as follows:

--> Platform Specifications

Windows NT 4.0 with Visual C++ 6.0
and
Linux RedHat 6.2 using gcc version ecgs-2.91.66 for a pentium

--> Installation,Configuration and Compilation
After installation, I included Xerces/bin-directory in my search-path, set up system variables such as 
XERCESROOT and on Linux LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The version of Xerces C++ is 1.3.0 .

The code compiles without error or warnings.

---> Problem Description:
When parsing, the SAX2 parser goes into startDocument and endDocument, but seems to ignore startElement and endElement. An exception (error,warning or fatalError is not thrown).
I tried to disable namespace and validation checking (which I understand is set to true/auto per default).
The problem with SAX2 parsing is Linux/Windows independent.


Any help to what may be the reason for this behaviour (which doesn't occur when using the SAX 1.0 parser) is greatly appreciated.
