[xsd-users] Visual Studio Express 2008 integration and makefile project

[Russ Loucks]

Well, unfortunately, I had to abandon my Cygwin-based project on Windows 
and was kindly told to use Visual Studio for a development platform.  
Managers.....

Granted, I'm more of a *nix n Java developer so I'm not so up-to-speed 
on Visual Studio C++-based projects...

Anyway, I have a simple VSE 2008 makefile-based project which uses the 
Qt development toolkit.  I started with the basic Address Book example 
in the Qt tutorials and just added a single XSD file and tried to link 
it in.

Specifically:

1) took hello.xsd from the examples/tree directory and ran 'xsd' on it:
     $ c:/Programs/xsd-3.3.0/bin/xsd.exe  cxx-tree --hxx-suffix .h 
--cxx-suffix .cpp hello.xsd

2) In VS ran my build on the project.  The build output follows:

     cl -c -nologo -Zm200 -Zc:wchar_t- -Zi -MDd -GR -EHsc -W3 -w34100

        . . . . .

Hmmm.  The xerces-c_3.lib file is on the link path.  In total I get 23 
undefined symbols.  If I comment out the use of the xerces-c_3.lib file, 
I get 39 undefined symbols....

I also tried adding  the xerces-c_3_1_1.dll file found in the 
xerces-3.1.1\bin directory, but that didn't change anything.

Stumped again......

Ideas?
