I have compiled Xerces on Solaris 2.8 and have been able to successfully use parts of it. The only thing we have used it for is parsing unvalidated documents. This seems to work fairly well. We have noticed problems when xerces is asked to parse a file that does not exist, the library causes a crash. The error occurs when an attempt to create an XMLReader fails. This results in an exception being raised which is corrupting memory and the XMLScanner's currentReader pointer gets corrupted. This results in a call to free memory with an invalid pointer.

Hey guys,
I was wondering if there are any plans to upgrade
the platforms for xerces... I was thinking in regards
to RH 7.1 and for egcs-2.95. I tried compiling
on RH 7.1but xerces seems to crash. I noticed from
the archive that a few people had the same problem
as well. Also, what about Solaris 2.8?
Thanks,
Cheung
Supported:
* Linux (RedHat 6.1) using egcs-2.91.66 and glibc-2.1.2-11
* Solaris 2.6 using Sun Workshop 4.2
