Re: [xml] libxml2 + python bindings + Cygwin?

["Xen Cloete" <XenC hollard co za>]

Hi Brian,

My five cents worth :-). 

I don't work with the technologies that you arebusy  but is there not a
possibility that you can use the debug process to point out where the
problem may be occurring? If this is difficult to debug, then maybe
Daniel/Igor could assist on how this could be done. 

Also, post in the Linux forums if debugging is a problem. There are a
lot of programmers out there that are very good and would certainly
help.

Hope this helps a little.

Regards

Xen

This is a fresh environment, with the latest Cygwin, and the libxml2
versions stated in my initial email. It's been locked up all night
long, and it's a typical WinXP i686 platform. How can I get more
information about this failure? Considering we just want to use it as a
simple XML and XSD parser in Python, I'm not too concerned about
threading issues, unless the library uses threads internally to speed
things up. So, can anyone answer/solve my other questions/problems? I'm
trying to install the Python rpm? (see below)

Thanks,
Brian
