Hi, Aparna.

Yes, you need to read the docs first.

Xerces requires the GNU make program to build. You cannot use
the AIX make!

I've recently built the Xerces C source (v 3.3.1) on AIX with no problems.
I'm using the xlC_r and xlc_r compilers, GNU make, and AIX 4.3.3.

It can be done, but you must read the build instructions.

Subject:  AIX Makefile Problem


Hi!
I have been using a downloaded XML parser (a static library) on the AIX
platform.
Apparently, there is something wrong with it.
So I decided to get the sources and compile and use the object files
instead.
The set up comes with a runConfigure script which asks you for details like
OS, C compiler, C++ compiler, etc and it generates a set of Makefiles to
compile the XML sources on the AIX.
I dont think they have tested this at all, because the generated Makefiles
do not parse thru. They get stuck at these kinds of statements...

ifeq (${SYSOVR},OS400)
PLATFORM = OS400
endif

These statements work on Solaris but not on AIX. Does anyone know how to
correct this for AIX?
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.
Aps
