- Expat, Release 1.95.6
-
-This is Expat, a C library for parsing XML, written by James Clark.
-Expat is a stream-oriented XML parser. This means that you register
-handlers with the parser before starting the parse. These handlers
-are called when the parser discovers the associated structures in the
-document being parsed. A start tag is an example of the kind of
-structures for which you may register handlers.
-
-Windows users should use the expat_win32bin package, which includes
-both precompiled libraries and executalbes, and source code for
-developers.
-
-Expat is free software. You may copy, distribute, and modify it under
-the terms of the License contained in the file COPYING distributed
-with this package. This license is the same as the MIT/X Consortium
-license.
-
-Versions of Expat that have an odd minor version (the middle number in
-the release above), are development releases and should be considered
-as beta software. Releases with even minor version numbers are
-intended to be production grade software.
-
-If you are building Expat from a check-out from the CVS repository,
-you need to run a script that generates the configure script using the
-GNU autoconf and libtool tools. To do this, you need to have
-autoconf 2.52 or newer and libtool 1.4 or newer. Run the script like
-this:
-
- ./buildconf.sh
-
-Once this has been done, follow the same instructions as for building
-from a source distribution.
-
-To build Expat from a source distribution, you first run the
-configuration shell script in the top level distribution directory:
-
- ./configure
-
-There are many options which you may provide to configure (which you
-can discover by running configure with the --help option). But the
-one of most interest is the one that sets the installation directory.
-By default, the configure script will set things up to install
-libexpat into /usr/local/lib, expat.h into /usr/local/include, and
-xmlwf into /usr/local/bin. If, for example, you'd prefer to install
-into /home/me/mystuff/lib, /home/me/mystuff/include, and
-/home/me/mystuff/bin, you can tell configure about that with:
-
- ./configure --prefix=/home/me/mystuff
-
-After running the configure script, the "make" command will build
-things and "make install" will install things into their proper
-location. Note that you need to have write permission into the
-directories into which things will be installed.
-
-If you are interested in building Expat to provide document
-information in UTF-16 rather than the default UTF-8, following these
-instructions:
-
- 1. For UTF-16 output as unsigned short (and version/error
- strings as char), run:
-
- ./configure CPPFLAGS=-DXML_UNICODE
-
- For UTF-16 output as wchar_t (incl. version/error strings),
- run:
-
- ./configure CFLAGS="-g -O2 -fshort-wchar" \
- CPPFLAGS=-DXML_UNICODE_WCHAR_T
-
- 2. Edit the MakeFile, changing:
-
- LIBRARY = libexpat.la
-
- to:
-
- LIBRARY = libexpatw.la
-
- (Note the additional "w" in the library name.)
-
- 3. Run "make buildlib" (which builds the library only).
-
- 4. Run "make installlib" (which installs the library only).
-
-Note for Solaris users: The "ar" command is usually located in
-"/usr/ccs/bin", which is not in the default PATH. You will need to
-add this to your path for the "make" command, and probably also switch
-to GNU make (the "make" found in /usr/ccs/bin does not seem to work
-properly -- appearantly it does not understand .PHONY directives). If
-you're using ksh or bash, use this command to build:
-
- PATH=/usr/ccs/bin:$PATH make
-
-When using Expat with a project using autoconf for configuration, you
-can use the probing macro in conftools/expat.m4 to determine how to
-include Expat. See the comments at the top of that file for more
-information.
-
-A reference manual is available in the file doc/reference.html in this
-distribution.
-
-The homepage for this project is http://www.libexpat.org/. There
-are links there to connect you to the bug reports page. If you need
-to report a bug when you don't have access to a browser, you may also
-send a bug report by email to expat-bugs@mail.libexpat.org.
-
-Discussion related to the direction of future expat development takes
-place on expat-discuss@mail.libexpat.org. Archives of this list and
-other Expat-related lists may be found at:
