build errors for xerces2-j 2.4.0
a couple of build problems in trying to build xerces 2.4.0 from
the source tar ball on a red hat 9 system.
1) first, after unloading the xerces tar ball itself, the README
claims that you should unload the src and tools archives in
the *same* directory.
but based on how build.sh works (and some simple testing),
it seems clear that you want to unpack the tools archive
*inside* the xerces directory you just created, so that the
path to the tools is actually correct.
just a nitpick, but perhaps the README could be clarified.
2) the tail end of running the command "sh build.sh jars" on
the same RH 9 system:

The compile problem only affected javadoc comments. As far as I know, you
should be able to use 1.4.2 at run time.

or i could just be lazy and work with the pre-built xerces binaries, which
i assume are just fine. i didn't have any overwhelming need to build from
source, i just didn't have anything better to do this morning. so i'll
just leave this alone, and go with the binaries. thanks.

p.s. there's no known problem *running* the xerces binaries with
sun's JRE 1.4.2, right? just the building part.

Hi Robert,
I'm going to out on a limb, and guessing that you're using SUN JRE 1.4.2
to compile Xerces. Appearently the translation of Unicode escapes in 1.4.2
doesn't work according to the JLS
(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/lexical.doc.html#95504).
'\u005cu' should be translated to '\u', but it seems to be processed
further as a new unicode escape sequence. If you have an account with the
Sun Developer Network, you can have a look at the bug report at:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4863451.html
We've worked around the problem, so if you extract the version in CVS, or
wait until the next release, you'll be able to compile the parser with
1.4.2. In order to compile Xerces 2.4.0, you should try using an earlier
SUN JRE, or one from another vendor.
Hope that helps.
