expat-1.95.7-1 has been uploaded to the Cygwin net distribution. Expat is an XML parser library written in C.
It is a stream-oriented parser in which an application registers handlers for things the parser might find in the XML document (like start tags). Homepage: http://www.libexpat.org/ CHANGES (since expat-1.95.6): - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy. - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback implementations in code compiled with a calling convention other than the default convention for the host platform. - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated expat_config.h header. This is useful for applications which embed Expat rather than linking in the library. - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues 458907, 609603, 676844, 679754, 692878, 692964, 695401, 699323, 699487, 820946. - Improved hash table lookups. INSTALLATION: To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up `expat' from the `Libs' category. Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is updated fast. In Denmark, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror.
