[Xalan-C] QA issues - Moving Targets
QA Issues - Moving Targets
There are a several quality-assurance issues to be addressed in
the Xalan 'C' project.
1. An issue regarding a Debian patch for Xerces/Xalan to work
with the Debian build for their FreeBSD kernel support needs
to be resolved.
2. Support for the new FreeBSD Version 10 operating system.
The BSD folks now have their own C++ compiler and link
libraries as a replacement for the GNU software. The new
development software is under the BSD license. I have not
yet created a FreeBSD-10 virtual machine to look at the
environment. FreeBSD-9 is still supported.
3. Support for Solaris-11 appears to be a problem. I have not
been able to get the new SunStudio installed on my Solaris-11
virtual machines to do any testing. Solaris-10 is still
supported.
Sincerely,
Steven J. Hathaway

PS: I will be looking into #1 and #2 for resolution.

I have a similar problem for another project, so I can volunteer to help
you here, I can get access the vm when created.

Thanks Bill for your response.
This helps to keep the project alive.
I am in the process of making sure that the necessary patches
are committed to the Xalan-C code base. My review of your Debian
patch for the FreeBSD kernel looks like a good candidate to include.
Sincerely,
Steven J. Hathaway
