[xsd-users] Re: XSD compile error

[Boris Kolpackov]

Hi Roger,

In the future please send technical questions like these to the
xsd-users mailing list (which I've CC'ed) instead of to me directly.
This way a) other developers who may have experienced a similar
problem can provide you with a solution b) questions and answers
will be archived and available to others with similar problems.

Thanks, I am glad you like it.

Can you make sure there is libboost_filesystem-gcc-1_34_1.so in
/home/fraserr/dev/boost_1_34_1/stage/lib? I didn't have a chance to
test everything with 1.34.x yet. Maybe the boost folks changed their
library naming schema again. If it is there but with a different name,
you can simply create a symlink with the name XSD expects.

That's ok. Either way it shouldn't cause the build to fail. If you
answer yes to this option then library paths will be embedded into
the XSD executable so you won't have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include,
for example, /home/fraserr/dev/boost_1_34_1/stage/lib.
