Description

I built xerces-c on Mac OS X using the compilers gcc and g++. I could build the libraries successfully.
But when I tried to build the tests I got the following error:
test -d /Users/tsbld/TechStackBuild/Components/xerces-c-2.6.0-WithoutICU/temp/xerces-c-src_2_6_0/bin || mkdir /Users/tsbld/TechStackBuild/Components/xerces-c-2.6.0-WithoutICU/temp/xerces-c-src_2_6_0/bin

Unless I build the tests and samples, I cannot be sure that I have built xerces-c successfully. Has anyone built xerces-c libraries as well as tests and samples successfully on Mac OS X

Thanks
