problems compiling and executing idl2xml

Hi all,

I am trying to execute your src conversion software idl2xml. It is located in ”../toolsrc/sys/src/idl/idl2xml”

I Also include the link to one of the project files of the directory:

http://www.koders.com/c/fid74780F7D854B35792801F5510DFAFD7ECF00F26F.aspx

Could you tell me how to invoke the idl2xml program? I can´t see the options nor the examples.

I guess that in the call for the program you have to give an .idl file. Putting two “F”s before the name: FF[name of the idl file].idl

$myexecutable FFmyFile.idl

It generates an .xml file called myFile.xml but the problem is that is empty. It has only the header, and <idl2xml></idl2xml> and nothing else.

I also encounter the error: Error 1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _RteArg referenced in function _PmRpnOpen pmsmsg.obj

while compiling. I see that the referenced function RteArg cant be found. Where is it located?

Thank you in advance

Angela,

Please include a link to the exact project you are referring to. We index thousands or Open source projects here at Koders. If you can check out the project page for the source code in question, that will most likely be the best place to find individual help on error messages.

I performed a search on koders.com for idl2xml and did not see any Projects that matched that query, although a few files do reference this package.

Please provide a little more information on how we can help you and we will do our best.

Cheers, Ben

¿Any idea?

Hey Angela,

I didn’t realize that you had edited the post above. I am subscribed to the RSS feeds to be notified when there is a post and editing a post versus replying to a topic doesn’t kick off a “feedable” event. Typically it is better to reply with a new response, otherwise the other replys will not make sense (see mine above :) )

Second point… none of the software on this site is ours. We are an open source search engine. There is an open source project called sapdb-ports. From Koders’ project page you can see (at the top of the page) the sapdb-ports project page: http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/sapdb-ports/.

We are releasing these forums to developing a community of support so that other developers can help each other out. Unfortnuatly I have not written in C in a long time and don’t see an answer to your question.

You might try checking with the project owners (listed on the sapdb-ports project page) but it looks like they have not made any contributions to it since 2003.
