Hi All, The Good News -- I'm making a shapshot available for testing. It includes all API components that were present in 2.5 - and I'm happy to add that all known memory leaks are gone. Further testing may reveal some, but I now understand enough of the issues that I am confident I can solve them easily.
The Rest --- There is one major problem with the snapshot - all DOMException and SAXException classes will cause segfault if any attempt is made to access their internal attributes (e.g. through a getMessage() or getCode() call). This is a serious problem and needs to be fixed, but while I'm tracking it down, the code is complete enought and robust enough for others to test. So expect some failures in make test. What it includes -- I've include a file that documents which parts of the Xerces-C++ API have been included (which header files have been wrapped). If you need access to some part of the API that I haven't yet exposed, please explain why you need it, and I'll be happy to include it. What it doesn't include -- The current code comes to around 78k lines - so I've made every effort to exclude pieces of the API that I consider unnecessary in an attempt to reduce the footprint of the code (see the file interface/ignore.i if you want to see what parts of the API I've excluded). How to get it -- I've had some trouble uploading to apache, so I'm making the snapshot and the digital signature temporarily available here: http://www.openinformatics.com/XML-Xerces-2.6.0-2005-05-28.tar.gz http://www.openinformatics.com/XML-Xerces-2.6.0-2005-05-28.tar.gz.asc Please let me know if you can successfully compile on your favorite platform/perl combo. Please let me know if I've forgotten something (your favorite feaure, the patch you emailed me 26 years ago, etc). Please let me know if you have any difficulties. Last but not least: Enjoy! Cheers, jas. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
