Expat, Release 1.95.7
|
||||
|
||||
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
|
||||
|
||||
The unit and regression tests for Expat require the "check" library on
|
||||
Unix; more information is available at http://check.sourceforge.net/,
|
||||
and downloadable packages are available from the library's project
|
||||
page on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/check/. You do
|
||||
not need to install the check library to build and use Expat, only to
|
||||
build and run Expat's test suite.
|
||||
|
||||
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.
