RE: [xml] Problems again, functions that don't existe in HP-UX, u rgent (I k now that all say this)

[Pinho external infineon com]

We have a manager to that machine, he's the only one with permitions to
install what we want, but when I asked him to compile the latest version of
libxml2 he didn't wanted to, he didn't want to install all the dependencies
required...

Daniel Veillard already gave me some clues, I will follow them to see the
results

About the work infineon, just try it :)

But... if you didn't compile libxml2 and installed it on the machine you 
are working on, which library are you using? HP doesn't deliver libxml2 
preinstalled on their PA-RISC systems. Someone must have installed it at 
some point, perhaps as a part of something else, GNOME perhaps?

With that, it can well be that you are trying to use the old libxml 
version 1.x.x which somehow ended up on the system. That won't work. Can 
you do a xmllint --version, what does it say?

There is nothing specific to HP-UX in libxml2. It has the same functions 
on all platforms. Follow the advices given to you so far. Install the 
recent version in your home directory, no privileges needed for that, 
and link your program using the static libxml2.a.

Hmm... by the way... if you don't make your schedule, does it leave a 
free place for an external at Infineon? :-) :-)  Hm... shouldn't have 
said that. I'll go silent :-)

Ciao,
Igor
