rafalrusin / xmlbeansxx

xmlbeansxx is an open source C++ library easing the processing of XML data. It is very similar to and in fact was inspired by Apache XMLBeans. The goal is to have the same functionalities and interfaces of XMLBeans.

II. Installing deps.

 1. Ubuntu 9.04:
    #apt-get install liblog4cxx10-dev libcppunit-dev libxerces-c2-dev libboost-dev autotools-dev automake cmake
 
 2. Gentoo
    #USE="-nocxx" emerge ">=dev-util/cmake-2.6" automake ">=sys-devel/gcc-4.3.3" ">=dev-libs/xerces-c-2.8" ">=dev-libs/boost-1.34" ">=dev-util/cppunit-1.12" log4cxx maven-bin


III. How to build and install.

  1. with Autotools
  run:
    ./bootstrap
    ./configure
    make 
    make check
    make install
    
  2. with cmake
    run:
    ./cbootstrap
    cd build
    make 
    make test
    make install
    
  
  
IV. precision of xsd:decimal numbers.

To increase the precision of decimal numbers use:
 xmlbeansxx::TextUtils::setPrecision(int precision);
if you use gmpxx the precision can by very large.
