This is expat, the C library for parsing XML, written by James Clark. Expat
5-
is a stream oriented XML parser. This means that you register handlers with
6-
the parser prior to starting the parse. These handlers are called when
7-
the parser discovers the associated structures in the document being parsed.

There are many options which you may provide to configure (which you can

discover by running configure with the --help option.) But the one of most

interest is the one that sets the installation directory. By default,

xmlwf into /usr/local/bin. If, for example, you'd prefer to install

After running the configure script, the "make" command will build things and

46+
When building for use with C++, you may need to add additional
47+
compiler flags to support proper interaction with exceptions. This
48+
can be done by setting the CFLAGS environment variable. For example,
49+
when using GCC, you can use:
50+
51+
CFLAGS=-fexceptions ./configure

Alternatively, on Win32 systems with Microsoft's Developer's Studio installed,
41-
you can simply double-click on lib/expat.dsp from Windows Explorer and build
42-
and install in the usual way from with DevStudio.
53+
Note for Solaris users: The "ar" command is usually located in
54+
"/usr/ccs/bin", which is not in the default PATH. You will need to
55+
add this to your path for the "make" command, and probably also switch
56+
to GNU make (the "make" found in /usr/ccs/bin does not seem to work
57+
properly -- appearantly it does not understand .PHONY directives). If
58+
you're using ksh or bash, use this command to build:

As a third alternative you may choose to download expat_win32bin which has
