RE: Xalan 1.1 on AIX with g++

[David_N_Bertoni]

Very strange.  I suspect that it's a compiler bug, but I don't know for
sure.  Are using the same version of gcc on both Solaris and AIX.

        I am blowing up in XalanDOMString::operator=(this, theRHS)
        The vector for theRHS is corrupt.  _M_finish has a value
that is 265 million greater then it should be.  _M_end_of_storage
is correct.


        Just a note: our code is working with xalan/xercies on
NT, Solaris (built with g++) and hpux (built with hpux aCC) it is only
on aix that I am having this problem.

Hmm, we've never built Xalan on AIX using g++.  It could be a compiler bug,

a bug in your code, or a bug in the Xalan code.  Is the crash in
XalanDOMString's copy constructor?  Does this happen inside of Xalan, or in

your own code?

        Is anybody using Xalan-c 1.1 on AIX 4.3.2 built with g++?   I am
having problems
        when a function returns a XalanDOMSString.  Sometimes
        XalanDOMSString val = function();
        works, sometimes it segmentation faults.  If I make &val an
arguement to the function
        and return the value through it that way it works.
