What is the difference between xerces-c_3_1.dll and xerces-c_3_1D.dll in apache xerces pre-built windows binaries

  • 0

What is the difference between xerces-c_3_1.dll and xerces-c_3_1D.dll in apache xerces pre-built windows binaries (xerces-c-3.1.1-x86-windows-vc-9.0.zip from http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/download.cgi)?

(Similarly there is also xerces-c_3.lib vs xerces-c_3D.lib)

I assume it has to do with different xerces build options, but I can’t seem to find any documentation describing the differences.

    The builds with the D suffix are debug builds. From the build instructions:

    When building your own applications you need to make sure that you are
    linking your application with the xerces-c_3.lib (Release) and/or
    xerces-c_3D.lib (Debug) libraries (or the static versions of them) and
    also that the associated DLLs are somewhere in the executable/DLL
    search path (PATH).
