coapp-packages / expat Goto Github PK

Hi!

This repository contains an outdated vulnerable copy of Expat 2.1.0. Please update your copy to version 2.2.4 with the latest security fixes. A change log with details is available at https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/blob/master/expat/Changes. If you happen to run into compile errors, please check post-2.2.2 commits in Git as well. Thank you!

PS: Are you going to update NuGet as well? Else, who should I contact?

Best

I use your package in a C++ project in VS 2012. Using the settings exposed in the project settings (Project properties > "Configuration Properties" > "Referenced Packages" > "expat"), I changed expat to use UTF-16. This is working perfectly for the compilation step, ie the preprocessor #define is set correctly and my Unicode project compiles perfectly.

However, it seems that the setting is not affecting the redistributable package, because VS always copies the ANSI library to the output directory. I can fix this by manually copying libexpatw.dll, but I found no way to make VS do this automatically.
