Compiling with Xerces-C on AIX 5.2

[ma...@firstdata.com]

Hi,

I am building an app on AIX 5.2 and am linking to the Xerces-C_2_7 library.
I have built the application with dynamic-linking to Xerces, but I'm
wondering is there a way to link statically to Xerces?  I've seen
references to "XML_LIBRARY" in the mailing-list, but dealing with VC++ on
Windows.  Is this applicable and sufficient to link statically on AIX?

Thanks,

On AIX you can link a shared library statically. With g++ the command
like would look along these lines:

g++ ... -Wl,-bstatic -lxerces-c -Wl,-bdynamic
