Is a 3.0 release in the foreseeable future?

See subject...

I really could use the application heap sizing before I ship, or I'll 
have to keep issuing my own Xerces packages, I can't live with a 64K 
allocation per document.

I don't have a lot of time to test exhaustively, but I'll certainly be 
able to exercise the build and test what I'm using if that helps.

If it's nowhere close, just a heads up to that effect is fine.

Thx,
-- Scott

Hi Raman,
thank you for helping us; Boris kindly set up a page on the wiki with 
the instructions  to get the latest sources from SVN: 
http://wiki.apache.org/xerces/XercescRepositoryAccess
You need to get the 'trunk' repository, run the 'configure' script, 
then 'gmake'.

Thanks,
Alberto

Uhm, I was under the impression that someone (David? Dave?) told me 
he was going to look at the issue, so I stopped working on that... 
but now I cannot find any trace of that conversation... Is everybody 
waiting for me while I am waiting for somebody else?

You need to also run 'gmake check' to build the test binaries; then, 
run scripts/sanityTest.pl and compare its result with 
scripts/sanityTest_ExpectedResult.log.
I use a little script that contains these lines:

#!/bin/sh

export PATH=$PATH:~/Xerces-C/samples:~/Xerces-C/tests
perl scripts/sanityTest.pl 2>&1 | sed 's/ *[0-9][0-9]*  *ms */{timing 
removed}/' 1> tempResult

if ! diff tempResult  scripts/sanityTest_ExpectedResult.log; then
   echo '*************************'
   echo '** Sanity check failed **'
   echo '*************************'
   exit 1
fi

Thanks,
Alberto

I can try to figure out what's wrong on AIX with xlC 7.0. I only have
access to Sun C++ 5.7 and later on Solaris so I won't be able to test
anything earlier than that.

Also what about the proper support for 64 bit platforms as discussed
in XERCESC-1531? Is it being postponed?

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1531


Finally, I tried to figure out how to run the test suite that comes
with the source (tests/ directory). But it does not appear to even
build. Do I need to re-configure in the maintainer's mode?

Yes, the only remaining issue is having Xerces build on the platforms 
for which binaries are usually built (Windows - RedHat - AIX - 
Solaris - HPUX for 32 bit, SuSE - AIX - Solaris - HPUX for 64 bit). 
As the build status page shows, AIX is not ready, and Solaris has 
some issues with older compilers.

As stated in the May Board Report, "there has not been enough work on 
testing the new build system to feel comfortable releasing it. 
Hopefully that will change this quarter." We already asked on the 
mailing list for help on fixing the AIX build, but if nobody shows 
up, we could just drop it and release Xerces 3.0 on the other platforms.

Hi Boris,

I'm not sure. I'm mostly just a causal observer here. If anyone has a good

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the link. The information for most of the entries on that page
seems to be rather outdated (7 months old). Do you know if successful build
on these platforms is the only remaining issues that prevents the release?
I also wonder if there is a release manager of some sort for 3.0?

Thanks,
Boris

I believe one of the things that has been holding back this release are 
the build failures which have been occurring on some of the platforms. The 
status for these is being tracked on the Wiki here [1]. I'm sure the 
Xerces-C developers would appreciate help from the community to fix these 
issues.

Thanks.
