I spent half of the day playing with msxml, which means I tried to
get it running on Linux with Java SDK 1.1.3. Here some points I
found:
1) Case folding
The filenames in the msxml.tar.gz are all folded to lowercase. This
might not matter with DOS filesystems, Unix is a bit harsher here.
One has to rebuild all *.class files.
2) Makefile
Rebuilding the *.class files from source is not easy (haven't managed
yet) because of various cross-dependencies. Is it possible for you to
provide a Unix style Makefile, or give me a pointer to docs on how to
read your MS specific Makefile ?
3) Missing imports
These imports are hidden in the source. Surely I could copy them from
IE4's Java files, but I'd be nice if msxml was self-contained.
import com.ms.com.*;
import com.ms.com.IUnknown;
import com.ms.com.Variant;
import com.ms.osp.*;
import netscape.javascript.JSObject;
Has anyone successfully run msxml on non-windows platforms ? Is this
at least intended ?
