Anonymous CVS Access

This project's SourceForge.net CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key.

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmlstar.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/xmlstar login
 
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmlstar.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/xmlstar co .

To build the source from CVS get the latest libxml2 and libxslt from http://xmlsoft.org/ and do the following

cd xmlstarlet
 
./autogen.sh --with-libxml-prefix=/usr --with-libxslt-prefix=/usr
 
./configure
 
make
 
Or HERE is a script which can help you to build it.

Here are few tips which will help you to avoid common problems compiling source code.

• Compile against latest stable versions of libxml2 and libxslt (see http://xmlsoft.org). Newer versions of XmlStarlet normally use latest stable releases of libxml2/libxslt.
  
• Make sure that libxml2 and libxslt header files matches (by version) with libraries you are linking. The versions of include files can be found in ${include_prefix}/libxml2/libxml/xmlversion.h and ${include_prefix}/libxslt/xsltconfig.h
  
• On some systems (as Solaris) under some conditions you may have to use 'gmake' command instead of 'make' to refer to GNU make
