Hi Colin,
There's loads of documentation on the web site:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/
In particular, see this FAQ:
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/faq.html#faq-7
I suspect the build.xml file was put there by our doc writer, who is a
Java-centric person. We don't use ant to build Xalan-C.

Subject: How do I build from
CVS?

How do I build xalan-c from CVS? There isn't a trace of documentation
that I can see.
I changed to the c directory. Noting the presence of a build.xml, I
tried typing:
ant
That produces:
Buildfile: build.xml
prepare:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
I was particularly impressed with the BUILD SUCESSFUL bit!
