Re: [xml] Question about the path of libxml2 library

Your problems are likely environmental.

 

Here is a simple shell script I use that will build all of the examples in the examples directory. This assumes a custom install location for libxml2 in /opt/libxml2.

 

# build from inside the examples directory.

 

export XML_DIR=/opt/libxml2

export PATH=${XML_DIR}/bin:${PATH}

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${XML_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

 

build() {

gcc -I${XML_DIR}/include/libxml2 –L${XML_DIR}/lib -lxml2 -lz -lm -o ${1} ${1}.c

}

 

build io1

build io2

build parse1

build parse2

build parse3

build parse4

build reader1

build reader2

build reader3

build reader4

build testWriter

build tree1

build tree2

build xpath1

build xpath2

 

# run things, if you want…

Hi Thomas,

Thank you very much for your reply.
I will try your solution.

Do you know why I still get the error notice (no such file or directory) even I copy the libxml folder out of the libxml2,
or change the code to #include <libxml2/libxml/xxx.h> ?

Linux is new for me, lack some background knowledge. Sorry.


BR,
Tong

How about when you build, specify the include path:

 

gcc -I${XML_DIR}/include/libxml2 -L{XML_DIR}/lib -lxml2 -lz -lm -o file file.c

Subject: [xml] Question about the path of libxml2 library

 

Hello everyone,

Here I have a small question about the path of libxml2 library.

I need  to modify my colleague's code, which use the libxml2 functions.

I already install the libxml2 packet. But got some errors for these lines(cannot find the files):

#include <libxml/parser.h>
#include <libxml/encoding.h>
#include <libxml/xmlwriter.h>

I find the default path for these headers are:" include/libxml2/libxml ", not " /include/libxml ".

I think I made some mistake, because every example online use these code: #include <libxml/xxx.h>

Should I "cp" libxml folder out, or change #include xxx? Or there's  standard way to solve this problem?



Thank you very much for your help.
