Alberto Massari resolved XERCESC-1689.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Thanks Guillaume for spotting this; I have checked in your fix (plus a couple of \
references to top_srcdir instead of top_builddir)

> CLONE -won't build from outside of source tree
> ----------------------------------------------
> 
> Key: XERCESC-1689
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1689
> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 1.5.1
> Environment: Operating System: Solaris
> Platform: Sun
> Reporter: Guillaume CERNIER
> 
> It's fairly standard practice to be able to build an autoconf-based package
> outside of its source tree (which is useful, if you like to keep the untarred
> source tree lying around, in pristine condition, or if you're building for
> multiple platforms and want to preserve the build for each) by running configure
> from the build directory.  For example, if I have package foo untarred in
> /usr/local/kits/foo/ and want to build it in /usr/local/builds/foo/, I'd run
> /usr/local/kits/foo/configure from /usr/local/builds/foo/.  If that doesn't
> work, there's actually an option for configure '--srcdir=DIR' that's supposed to
> do the trick.
> So, Xerces-C++ should provide some mechanism for supporting builds from outside
> the source directory (meaning that all paths in the makefiles must be in terms
> of '$(SRCDIR)', and runConfigure should check $0, to see where it lives, rather
> than assuming this to be '.', so it can try to run configure from the right
> place).
