Look inside the file <code>src/util/XercesDefs.hpp</code> or, in the binary distribution, look in <code>include/utils/XercesDefs.hpp</code>. Search for the static variable <code>gXercesFullVersionStr</code> and look at its definition. (It is usually a string like "1_4_0" or something similar). This is the version of &XercesCName; you are using.</p> <p>If you don't have the header files, you have to find the version information from the shared library name. On Windows NT/95/98 right click on the DLL name &XercesCWindowsDLL;.dll in the bin directory and look up properties. The version information may be found on the Version tab.</p> <p>On AIX, just look for the library name &XercesCUnixLib;.a (or &XercesCUnixLib;.so on Solaris/Linux and &XercesCUnixLib;.sl on HP-UX). The version number is coded in the name of the library.</p> </a> </faq> <faq title="I can't use C++. Do you have a Java version?"> <q>I can't use C++. Do you have a Java version?</q> <a> <p>Yes. The Xerces family of products also has a Java version.

Mailing lists provide a simple and effective communication mechanism. You are welcome to join any of these mailing lists (or all of them if you wish). You can choose to lurk, or to actively participate. It's up to you. Before you join these lists, you should look over the resources in the Reference Library section</p> <p>Instructions for subscribing are at <jump href="http://xml.apache.org/mail.html">http://xml.apache.org/mail.html</jump>.

How do I submit it?"> <q>I have a patch to the &XercesCName; source code. How do I submit it?</q> <a> <p>Mail it to the <jump href="mailto:&XercesCEmailAddress;">&XercesCName; mailing list</jump> at Apache. (You must be a subscriber to post to this list. But if you're considering changing the code you really want to be a subscriber, in any case.) There are no set rules about how or what must be included -- if you've fixed a problem or enhanced the code in some way, we really would like to get your changes, and will take them in any reasonable form.</p> <p>Generally a diff of the changed files against the current sources from CVS is good, along with some kind of description of what the change is. (Working with the current sources is important!)</p> </a> </faq> <faq title="Where can I get predefined character entity definitions?"> <q>Where can I get predefined character entity definitions??</q> <a> <p> Download <jump href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/xhtml1.zip"> http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/xhtml1.zip. </jump></p> </a> </faq> </faqs>
