Makefile problem

[Simon, Christine]

Hello,

I'm trying to compile the XML-Xalan samples pograms using the G++ compiler. Compiling goes ok but the linker gives an error. i'm using AIX on Unix. The libxalan-c1_3.a was downloaded for AIX from the Apache.org.

Following the messages the Makefile returns:

Preparing the directory structure for a build ...
mkdir -p ../obj
mkdir -p /proj/mediatrend/gde1125/xml-xalan/c/lib
mkdir -p /proj/mediatrend/gde1125/xml-xalan/c/bin

        The s_scnptr or s_size field is invalid in the .loader section header.
        The object is being ignored.
collect2: ld returned 12 exit status
make: *** [/proj/mediatrend/gde1125/xml-xalan/c/bin/SimpleTransform] Error 1 

Does anybody know what could be the reason (another link parameter??)

Hope for fast help.

Best regards
Christine
