building new application

["Doshi, Nilesh" <Ni...@corp.ALLADVANTAGE.com>]

 I was able to build samples files on solaris .
Now, We are receiving a datafile from a vendor which is in a XML format
based on DTD supplied by them.
I want to remove all those XML tags  and create a flat file with data only.
Use that flat file to upload data into Oracle.
I'm new to XML so can somebody tell me how do i go about this ? 
Thx,
Nilesh

Besides using gmake instead of 'make' do not mix gcc and CC. At best
you may be able to compile the sources, but they won't link as the
binary file formats are different.

Use gcc and g++ and cc and CC. However, do note that there are no
C files in Xerces-C and hence you did not notice any problems.

My first reaction would be to say NO. Oracle is a smart database package
that knows how to read XML. They have nice features in 8i. Creating a flat
file from an XML is like going backward. A better solution would be to
investigate how you can read the XML directly into Oracle. IBM's DB2
extender has this capability too.
