C++ library for using SGML/XML files.
This is useful for validating, parsing and manipulating SGML and XML
documents.

Installation of OpenSP
Install OpenSP by running the following
commands:
sed -i 's/32,/253,/' lib/Syntax.cxx &&
sed -i 's/LITLEN 240 /LITLEN 8092/' \
unicode/{gensyntax.pl,unicode.syn} &&
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--disable-static \
--disable-doc-build \
--enable-default-catalog=/etc/sgml/catalog \
--enable-http \
--enable-default-search-path=/usr/share/sgml &&
make pkgdatadir=/usr/share/sgml/OpenSP-1.5.2
To test the results, issue: make check. As many as
nine of the 23 tests may fail. Do not be alarmed.
Now, as the root user:
make pkgdatadir=/usr/share/sgml/OpenSP-1.5.2 \
docdir=/usr/share/doc/OpenSP-1.5.2 \
install &&
ln -v -sf onsgmls /usr/bin/nsgmls &&
ln -v -sf osgmlnorm /usr/bin/sgmlnorm &&
ln -v -sf ospam /usr/bin/spam &&
ln -v -sf ospcat /usr/bin/spcat &&
ln -v -sf ospent /usr/bin/spent &&
ln -v -sf osx /usr/bin/sx &&
ln -v -sf osx /usr/bin/sgml2xml &&
ln -v -sf libosp.so /usr/lib/libsp.soCommand Explanations
sed -i 's/32,/253,/...unicode.syn}:
These seds prevent some annoying messages that may otherwise appear
while running openjade.
--disable-static: This switch prevents
installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-http: This switch adds support
for HTTP.
--disable-doc-build: This switch prevents the
configure script checking if you have
xmlto installed. If you have
xmlto, you can remove this option.
--enable-default-catalog=/etc/sgml/catalog:
This switch sets the path to the centralized catalog.
--enable-default-search-path: This switch
sets the default value of SGML_SEARCH_PATH.
--enable-xml-messages: This switch adds
support for XML Formatted Messages.
make pkgdatadir=/usr/share/sgml/OpenSP-1.5.2
: This sets the
pkgdatadir variable in the Makefile from
/usr/share/OpenSP to /usr/share/sgml/OpenSP-1.5.2.
ln -v -sf ...: These commands create the
SP equivalents of
OpenSP executables and libraries.
