Hi,
I was trying to install the tclxml/3.2 and went through
http://tclxml.sourceforge.net/tclxml/3.2/README.html#installation.
But am really confused on wat is it that I have to do to install
this.
I have ActiveTcl8.4.19.0.285137 installed on my windows XP system. As
per instruction, I understood that I must just follow the
instructions
below:
*****************
Pure-Tcl Installation
no compilation required
Run the configure script and invoke the command:
make install
If the pure-Tcl parser is good enough for you, then read no further.
****************************
not sure if I must run the shell script 'configure' here. Also, what
does it mean with 'invoke the command: make install'?
According to my understanding I dont need to build/install libxml by
downloading libxml2 from xmlsoft.org . Please clarify
Thanks in advance,
GSA

I have tried tclxml early this year:
- tcl-only implementation has many drawbacks, I remember only one:
- no BOM recognition for UTF files
- I did not manage to build the binary version on Windows.
The depending libraries (libxml2...) are IMHO compiled with
difficult options, so I stopped
- I was told, there is a compiled version on teapot. If you use
activestate TCL, you should be able to install it easily
(if you are on a supported platform I believe)
- I switched to tdom - worked very well for me, binaries available
(also via teapot)
Hope this helps,
Harald
