[OSM-talk] Regarding using osm2pgsql for winGRASS

[yuri bay]

Hi Artem,

I am trying to compile the osm2pgsql.c using Msys in win2k (to be used for 
winGRASS) and the following is part of the list of errors.  I have put both 
the libxml/ xmlstring.h and libxml/ xmlreader.h files into the same 
directory as the one with osm2psql.c  in.  What seem to be the problem here? 
  Where should I put my libxml.dll and why is the compiler not recognise 
these files?

error*********************************

libxml/ xmlstring.h: No such file or directory
libxml/ xmlreader.h: No such file or directory
parse error before "reader"
In function: 'StartElement':
'xmlChar' undeclared (first use in this function)
...
...
...

Any advice and suggestions is much appreciated.  Many thanks

best regards
Casey Wong
