<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm afraid that you're doing that work right now, and not a week before :-)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>because I just released a new MSYS GRASS environment, while it would be perfect to also add Xerces and Expat support to both GDAL and GRASS (only Xerces)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>it will be on the next time</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>anyway I'm not sure about Expat; did you read this? <A href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildingWithMinGW">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildingWithMinGW</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>the libexpat.dll.a is the import static library used while building the shared one; it is used (with the -lexpat.dll istruction) while building executables</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>but I hope to fail and you're right ;-)</FONT></DIV>
