Building on Visual Studio 2005

[Rob.Conde]

Ok,             I know it’s only been out for a few days, but I’m having trouble building Xalan 1.10 on Visual Studio .NET 2005.   Problem #1: VS 2005 nmake does not appear to suck in tools.ini files even though the docs say it should. This leaves things undefined and causes Localization to fail to build quite quickly. This of course is not really under the control of Xalan devs, but fyi…   I worked around it by simply pasting the relevant definitions from tools.ini into the top of BuildMessages.mak.   Problem #2: The next thing I run into are syntax errors in icureshandler.cpp             Line 89:             void XalanFileOutputStream::write(const UTF16Ch *, unsigned int) cannot convert parameter 1 from ‘XMLCh[512]’ to ‘const UTF16Ch *’             Line 150:           void XalanFileOutputStream::write(const UTF16Ch *, unsigned int) cannot convert parameter 1 from ‘XMLCh *’ to ‘const UTF16Ch *’   I could imagine I might run into more problems once these are fixed – but that’s as far as I get at the moment. I would appreciate any help I can get. Or at least a status/acknowledgement.   Robert Conde
