Thanks for the C++ offer. Our projects are in maintenance mode with few committers to do development activities. You are welcome to participate and contribute to the projects by initially contributing to JIRA. XALANC Project - Requires XERCES-C XALANC-741 Patch for VS 2012 The basic compilation for MS Visual Studio 2012 (VC11) works. The scripts in the attached zip files are what I use to assemble packages with the various Microsoft Visual Studio platforms. To build products that are XP compatible, you probably need to use an earlier version of Microsoft Visual Studio. An issue reported against XERCES-C describes the issue. I have not tested the VS 2012 builds of XERCES-C and XALAN-C on XP. Products using MS VS 2012 appear usable on Vista, Win7, Server 2008, and Win8. I have not yet tried XALAN-C on a Server 2012 platform but it should work. I have scripts to build both XERCES-C and XALAN-C from sources on Microsoft platforms (MS VS 2003 thru MS VS 2012) I have not yet tried the upgrade to MS VS 2013 Beta. XALANC-746 Allow builds for GNU/kFreeBSD This patch is supplied by the Debian integrator in order to use XALANC with the Debian platform on a FreeBSD kernel. This should be ready to commit to the trunk. The xalan.exe executable does not yet handle command-line support to include additional XML documents as top-level stylesheet parameters. Xalan.exe does support assigning string values to top-level parameters and use an XPath function to parse a named file converting it to a nodeset. The library now supports the capability to assign values of type TEXT, DOUBLE and NODESET (XML Documents) as named parameters. I am currently working on the XSLT stylesheets to create a revised download page that uses the python mirror mapping archiecture devised by the infrastructure team. I am also doing the minor web page edits required for a new patch release of Xalan C. Sincerely, Steven J.
