RE: [xml] libxml2-2.6.22 static vs. dynamic on Windows

[<Eric Zurcher csiro au>]

I cannot replicate this problem (though I tested with current CVS source
rather than 2.6.22 source). Can you provide a bit more detail about when
this occurs? What is being linked at the time? Does the build procedure
succeed in generating any (or all) of the "test" applications? 

I note that your linker message refers to "___xmlIndentTreeOutput" (with
three underscores), but the entry point in the DLL is
"__xmlIndentTreeOutput" (with two underscores). I don't recall the ins
and outs of MSVC name decoration, and I think this may be perfectly
normal, but it might indicate problems with calling convention
declarations.

You might be a bit overgenerous in setting build options - e.g.,
defining both "include" (where the build procedure will search for
headers) and "inc_dir" (where the
build procedure will attempt to install headers) to the same directory.

Hello,

On Windows, I see a difference between the static and dynamic libraries.
When I link with the dynamic library, I get this error:

("error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___xmlIndentTreeOutput").

I do not get this error with the static version of libxml2.

Here is how I built libxml2:
--------------------------------------------------------
REM ###COMMON###
call %VS71COMNTOOLS%\vsvars32.bat
set XML_DIR=N:\Build\LIBXML2\ix2k
set INC_DIR=%XML_DIR%\include

REM ###RELEASE###
set LIB_DIR=%XML_DIR%\release
set DBG=no

cscript configure.js compiler=msvc prefix=%XML_DIR% incdir=%INC_DIR%
include=%INC_DIR% libdir=%LIB_DIR% sodir=%LIB_DIR% lib=%LIB_DIR% zlib=no
iconv=no debug=%DBG%

nmake -f Makefile.msvc clean
nmake -f Makefile.msvc
nmake -f Makefile.msvc install
--------------------------------------------------------

Has anyone seen this error? ("error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
___xmlIndentTreeOutput") Is there a solution?

Thanks,
-Tom
