I'm using xcode (1.5) with the default gcc 3.3 and OS (10.3.8) and the latest
xerces (2.6 I believe, this behavior was the same for other recent releases).
We're initializing the parser with:
xercesc::XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize();
mParser.reset( new xercesc::XercesDOMParser() );
mParser->setValidationScheme( xercesc::XercesDOMParser::Val_Always );
mParser->setDoNamespaces( false );
mParser->setDoSchema( true );
mParser->setCreateCommentNodes( false ); // No comment nodes
mParser->setIncludeIgnorableWhitespace( false ); // No text nodes
mErrHandler.reset( (xercesc::ErrorHandler*)new xercesc::HandlerBase() );
mParser->setErrorHandler( mErrHandler.get() );
And passing the file string to
parser->parse( xmlFile.c_str() );
where parse is a pointer to the already initialized parser.
If I pass in
../../../configuration.xml
The parser looks for the file configuration.xml in the root directory. If its
not there
then I get an exception message of
The primary document entity could not be opened.
Id=//../../../configuration.xml
Note the extra "/"'s in front of the string that I passed in.
Thanks for your help.
Steve

Subject: Re: Relative paths in C++ on Macintosh OS X
Steve,
I don't know of a problem in this area. I've used relative paths
successfully. But your setup may be somewhat different.
Can you provide more information about the context in which you're
seeing this issue? Build environment? Compiler? What API you're passing
the relative path to? Can you duplicate the issue with a test program?

Note that it's puzzling why the path above gets converted into an
absolute path as below... It looks like the current directory is root.
Xerces should be calling getcwd to fetch the current directory (and
does so at XMLParsePathToFSRef_X in MacOSPlatformUtils.cpp.
