Visual Studio 2005 debug build issue

[Geir Guldstein <gg...@start.no>]

Hello All,

I want to share my Visual Studio 2005/Xalan C++ 1.10 experience with you.

I experienced the same issues (tools.ini and "Treat wchar_t as Built-in Type.") 
reported and solved by Robert Conde/David Bertoni on November 4th/5th.
After solving those issues Xalan C++ 1.10 sucessfully builds when compiling on 
VS2005 in release mode.

I also want to build Xalan in debug mode. However, the compiler complains about 
several things in the xutility header when I try to do this. I do (among 
others) get several errors like this one:

Error	9	error C2678: binary '<' : no operator found which takes a left-
hand operand of 
type 'xalanc_1_10::XalanDequeIterator<XalanDequeTraits,XalanDeque>' (or there 
is no acceptable conversion)	C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8
\VC\include\xutility	1360

I have been able to solve the problem by disabling the Standard C++ library 
debug iterator suppport (which is enabled by default when compiling in debug 
mode). I did this by adding _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING=0 to the list of 
preprocesor definitions. It could be that the problem is caused by a defect in 
the Standard C++ library shipped with Visual Studio 2005. By the way, I don't 
have any problems when compiling in debug mode on VS .NET 2003.

This is FYI - I guess the information could be useful for others, and it should 
be looked into when releasing a Xalan C++ version with Visual Studio 2005 
support (project files etc.)

FYI - I found the same as Geir - I just haven't had time to report it.
