[venkat naidu <svenkatnaidu gmail com>]

thanks a  lot Mr.daniel
i think it will be a lenghty mail but i want explain you all so that you wont feel bad.. okk

i have given libXML 2.6.20 and i was supposed to build  binaries in win32 system , i  have follwed the instructions which you specified and started to build the component as steps given below ...

first i set up all environment variables then i 

cscript configure.js compiler=msvc debug=yes  since i wanted to install in same dir..

later i used 

nmake /f Makefile.msvc  ( initially they were few link errors which i was able to resolve)

after it was sucessfull then 

nmake /f Makefile.msvc install

then it gave me a sucessfull message..

i felt very happy ...

later the actual story began .. now i was supposed to test them ..

so  i tried 

nmake /f Makefile.msvc tests

but there were few errors, later when i was browsing the CVS of xmlsoft.org i found libXML-tests.tar.gz

i downloaded it and followed instructions specified in it , i compiled 
runtest.c testapi.c and  runsuite.c with linking specified options ...eventhough initially i struggled a lot but it was cool
finally i got the exe of respective files then i ran the exe's  in command prompt

as shown below

T:\lxml\test\libxml2-2.6.20>runsuite
