Hi, To answer your second question: The locking mechanism used on Windows relied on an API which changed between versions of MS Visual C++. Unfortunately, this was not discovered until after Axis C++ 1.5 was released.
However, we have now fixed this section of code to use an alternate API. If you wish to use source, you can get this from SVN (see instructions here: http://ws.apache.org/axis/cpp/developers-guide.html#checkingOut ) Adrian _______________________________________ Adrian Dick ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) WebSphere MQ and ESB Development IBM United Kingdom Ltd.
