[xsd-users] Problems linking Code which uses XSD in Release mode

[Jan Klimke]

Hi Boris,

here are some information about my solution setup.

I put all files generated by the xsd compiler into a separate DLL-project.
Another DLL should use the library. When linking this library in release
mode the error occurs. An example project is a bit hard to create due to
the dependencies of the libraries. So you won't be able to compile the
whole project. Is it sufficient to send it  to you like this ?

Despite of that i am wondering why linking works when building in debug
mode.
