[»] I like it, but
by Patrice Neff - Feb 14th 2002 03:49:54

I like this library, but it has some drawbacks.

First it is very bloated. Or what do you call it if the smallest available download at http://xml.apache.org/dist/xerces-c/stable/ is 5.4M?

Second it's impossible to compile with -Wall. That's sad because I really hat to turn of these warnings for only this library.

The size of the archive is quite big due to a large number of inheritance graph images generated by doxygen for the API reference. If you don't need those (for example because you prefer to read the documentation online), simply remove the doc directory after you unpack the source code.

There also shoudn't be any problems compiling your code with -Wall provided you are using a fairly recent version of Xerces-C++.
