[ECOS] xml parser

[ECOS] xml parser

[Diego Duyvejonck]

Hi,

I would like to implement an XML parser that runs with eCos (powerpc
platform).  Libxml2 would be an interesting choice.  Has anyone tried to
build this library ?
Running configuration (from the unpacked libxml2 SRPM directory -
xmlsoft.org) confirms that a cross compiler 'powerpc-unknown-eabi' (?) is
used...
I get the libxml.a library file by running the generated MakeFile.  But
still, I cannot get that library file to work with my eCos project.  It
doesn't compile (reports missing header file e.g. "iconv.h", ...).  My own
MakeFile seems ok  -> the location of the libxml2 header files and library
is set correctly.

best regards,
Diego Duyvejonck

Compiling external code and getting it hooked together with the eCos 
and applications can sometimes be a challenge, especially if that 
external package has it's own Makefile(s), etc.

You might try looking at some of my examples:
  http://www.mlbassoc.com/examples/
In particular, the NetPiPe example shows how external packages can be
combined with the eCos kernel to build up a complete eCos application.

You also might send more detail, e.g. the actual Makefile(s) and command
lines that you used, to the list and then we would be better able to
comment.

Hello,

maybe http://www.grinninglizard.com/tinyxml/ is worth a look (if you want to have a DOM parser). It is not a library but compiled and linked together with your application sources. It works fine for me.
http://expat.sourceforge.net/ is a good choice if you prefer a SAX parser. It is a library an can easily be adapted to ecos.

Regards,
Dirk
