RE: Problems with XMLSTring::transcod() method - Running xerces 1 _5_1 from within a COM wrapper.

["Horn, Nancy" <nh...@icoms.com>]

	Thanks for the response.  We do only run the Intialize once
in our app.  Creating the parser and parsing values into
the Dom_Node works fine.  It's just that when we go to use 
XMLString::transcode (to convert Dom_Node to a string), we find
that gTranscoder wasn't set way back in the initialize.  
	It appears that lower in the Initialize code, it is invoking
the "panic" method.

I'm rather a newbie.  But I had a similar problem.  I found that 
I could only really run XMLPlatformUtilsInitialize() once at executable 
startup and could only run the XMLPlatformUtils::Terminate() command 
once, e.g. in the dtor.  Otherwise, it would throw exceptions when 
attempts were made to create a parser.

1_5_1 from within a COM wrapper.


	Hello, 

	We are trying to generate a wellformed  XML String (from Dom_Node)
within 
a COM wrapper, and are using the Apache xerces-c-1_5_1 library with our
code.  

	Running standalone (on Solaris), the (XML) code works perfectly.
However, when built into
a COM wrapper library, the same code dies when trying to use the
XMLString::transcode() method.  
We traced this in the debugger (dbx) and found that the static variable
(gTranscoder) does 
not get set properly when the parser is initialized (during
PlatformUtils::Initialize() ) from within the
COM environment.  

	We did not build with ICU - (we used  "-tnative" option when
generating the make files).  
Do I need to do this to get it to work in COM? 

	Has anyone else ever tried this?  I believe the difference in
behavior is because 
the code is running from a "COM wrapper", but I don't know how to solve the
problem to 
get it to work.  

	Any help or suggestions will be appreciated, as I'm under a very
aggressive deadline to
get this done.  

	THANKS!!!!!
	-Nancy Horn
