Problem building Xerces 2.7.0

[Matthew <ee...@hotmail.com>]

Hi all,

This is my first posting, so apologies if this topic has been posted before;
I did search but didn't find anything specific to my problem.

I'm trying to build Xerces 2.7.0 without the depracated DOM's on WinXP
32-bit, using borland 5.5 C++ compiler; I've followed the instructions but I
get the following error:

All the the .obj files are built but there are no .exe files for the samples
and the XercesLib.dll does not exist. I think there is a problem, please
help.

Regards,

Matthew

Please rename afxres.h to winres.h in XercesLib project directory and
all should be find.

Good luck!

Then he miss those pretty looking VERSIONINFO in dll :)

Actually, the Borland build doesn't use the resource message loader, 
so you can safely remove the .res from the makefile.

I suspect Borland's free compiler ship without the necessary Windows header 
files to compile the resources.  You'll need to remove the resource files 
from the build, or get a version of the compiler that has the Windows 
header files with it.  This can be tricky, because the error messages on 
Windows are loaded through the resource file, so you'll need to change the 
preprocessor macro XML_USE_WIN32_MSGLOADER to XML_USE_INMEM_MESSAGELOADER 
in the XercesLib project.
