libXMLParser missing in the windows distribution

ROOT
1

Hello,

I don’t find libXMLParser in the windows distribution (mode debug) since the version 5.34.21.
Is there a particular reason ? I need to use the TDOMParser class, can you help me ?

Thanks

Hi,

ROOT binaries only contain a minimal set of libraries (the one not requiring external dependencies), since we cannot ship those external dependencies anyway. So if you need more options, you can easily ROOT from source with CMake and Visual Studio. See Building ROOT with CMake

Hi,

thanks for your quick answer.

I have now another question: i have seen on linux base system that several ROOT versions can cause conflicts, is it the same with Windows ? Do i have to erase my old version of ROOT ?

Thanks,

Hi,

No, you can have several versions on the same computer. You simply have to make sure to use the correct version (either by calling thisroot.bat from the version you need, or by setting the correct %ROOTSYS% environment variable)
