Installation

XeuMeuLeu does not require more than downloading and extracting the latest available archive.

Apache Xerces and (optionally) Apache Xalan might however require some compilation, although binary distributions are directly available for download for the most common platforms.
Refer to their respective documentation for instructions on how to proceed :

• Installing Apache Xerces-C++
• Installing Apache Xalan-C++

Note that if you plan to use only the XML subset of XeuMeuLeu then only Apache Xerces is needed.

XeuMeuLeu requires the following versions of those libraries :

• Apache Xerces-C++ 2.7.0 or 2.8.0
• Apache Xalan-C++ 1.10
