RE: HPUX 11 xerces xalan

["Prothro, John" <Jo...@bmc.com>]

OK, well, got the latest from cvs but it has build errors.
So, it was suggested that I go back to get 1.7 stable src.
It does not build for erros also.

So... do you guys support native compiles on HPUX with the
-AA switch? The website and download area suggests that you 
do support native HPUX builds, but the source does not support 
that notion.


Thanks,
John

Excellent. I tried this months ago and got no where on
this list. Thanks. Your fantastic!!!! Who's your boss?
Can I buy you lunch?.. just kidding.  :)

I'll -try- to get the latest source and re do experiment.

Hi John,

If you're building with the -AA switch, then I suggest you get the latest
sources from CVS and build with them.  A while back, I did the work to make
the source code compatible with HP's new standard library.  We didn't do
the distribution with the -AA switch because the Xerces team does not use
it.

That will also solve the problem you're having with supports() vs.
isSupported(), which is a result of the Xerces team changing their
interfaces.  You're trying to build Xalan sources which use the old
interfaces against a version of Xerces after the changes.

I'll kick off a build with -AA right now, just to make sure the sources are
still compatible.  For more info about getting sources from CVS, see here:

   http://xml.apache.org/cvs.html

Ok, Thanks...

My Compiler Version is...
HP aC++ B3910B A.03.33

Also, I am in a similar situation as you probably...
I work for a large software company and I build mega bytes of source on
this machine every day or so... so I know it is up to the task.

Another question... was the distribution built with the -AA switch?
The reason I am building, instead of using the distributed libs is
because of the documented requirement that -all- translation units must be
rebuilt with this switch. (ref. hp's aCC 3.33 manual)

I have had to change the HPUXDefinitions.hpp to exclude the
XALAN_NO_NAMESPACES,
XALAN_OLD_STREAMS, XALAN_OLD_STREAMS_HEADERS, and ultimately had to
define XALAN_UNALIGNEDLAN_NO_COVARIANT_RETURN_TYPE to get around the
compiler error in XercesAttrBridge.cpp whereas line 269 indicates
"supports"
is not a member of class DOM_Attr. But when I did that and rebuilt, I
started to get other
errors relating to XALAN_UNALIGNED definition.  ;(  So I gave up and went
to
lunch.

Also, Thanks you very much for the reply. Any further assistance
will be greatly appreciated.

My compile flags are...

aCC -O -DNDEBUG -mt -AA -D_HPUX_SOURCE -D_HP_NAMESPACE_STD +Z -DHPUX
-D_THREAD_SAFE


Thanks a whole bunch,
John

Earlier today, I built Xalan with the latest CVS sources on HP-UX 11
without any problems.  Here's our compiler version:

~/apache/xml-xalan/test/tests > aCC -V
aCC: HP ANSI C++ B3910B A.03.33

~/apache/xml-xalan/test/tests > uname -a
HP-UX tcdev1 B.11.00 E 9000/785 2004214080 8-user license

The distribution was built with this version of the compiler.

If your compiler is not at the level, you should probably upgrade.  If your
compiler is at a higher level, I'll have to ask our HP contact to upgrade
the compiler so I can figure out what's wrong.

I do remember a compiler issue a while back, but we got an upgrade.  I
don't remember the details any longer.

If you continue to have problems, you might want to post a _brief_ message
that explains what problems you're seeing.

Hi,

I have noticed that your site offers xerces/xalan binaries for HPUX 11.
I have downloaded the latest stable source and can get xerces to compile
with relative minimal effort.

Xalan however is proving to be a challenge. Could someone be so
kind as to supply the source that compiles on HPUX 11 with aCC 3.3x
or better. Or can someone supply the compiler flags, defines,
changes to Include/HPUXDefinitions.hpp etc... that is required to
build the product?

Thanks,
John
