xerces - vxWorks 6.x for PowerPC
Hi,
Has anyone been successful in building a recent version of the xerces library for vxWorks v6.x running on a PowerPC?
PS: I have tried to build it and searched vxWorks and xerces FAQs with no luck.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Boris,
I am able to get xerces 3.1.0 to build until it stops with this error message "configure: error: Xerces cannot function without a transcoder", which is expected.
My problem now is in building the icu library. I followed the instructions on the ICU website but so far I have not been successful. I am having a problem when I am building the host build, buildB. It does not build any of the libraries, like "icutu". I am looking into it, but if you or others have been able to build the icu successfully, I appreciate your input.
Thanks,
Nick

I haven't tried it on VxWorks but I have done so for LynxOS and I
think it should be possible for VxWorks 6.x. The only potentially
problematic area is the transcoder implementation. I would first
try --enable-transcoder-iconv and if that doesn't work (as on
LynxOS) then you will need to build ICU for VxWorks and configure
Xerces-C++ to use that. Cross-compiling ICU is a tricky task which
is described in this earlier post:

What exactly didn't work when you tried to build it?
