[Tclxml-users] Error compiling TclXML & TclExpat with MS Visual Studio 6.0

[Rob F. <tc...@so...>]

All -

I recently downloaded TclXML v2.5 and have attempted to compile it with VS
6.0.

I was able to compile expatlib without errror, however, trying to compile
TclXml results in the following error:
Linking...
   Creating library Release/tclxml.lib and object Release/tclxml.exp
tclxml.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _tclxmlStubs
Release/tclxml.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

I eventually managed to force both TclXML.dll and TclExpat.dll to be
generated.  Upon trying to use the code I found that I was only able to
parse documents once per parser.  I began resetting the parser after each
parse attempt which resolved the situation.

Later, however, I ran into a situation where the parser (i don't recall if
it was in tclxml or tclexpat) seemed to cause a violation of memory.  I'm it
tried to return a NULL pointer when a non-NULL was expected.  I managed to
comment out a few lines and force some returns to be specific values and was
able to get the library to parse properly.  I, however, feel that this
really isn't an optimum solution.

Can anyone here offer me any advice on what's going wrong?
