12    <p>Usually the problem comes from the fact that the compiler doesn't get
13    the right compilation or linking flags. There is a small shell script
14    <code>xslt-config</code> which is installed as part of libxslt usual
15    install process which provides those flags. Use</p>
16    <p><code>xslt-config --cflags</code></p>
17    <p>to get the compilation flags and</p>
18    <p><code>xslt-config --libs</code></p>
19    <p>to get the linker flags. Usually this is done directly from the
20    Makefile as:</p>
21    <p><code>CFLAGS=`xslt-config --cflags`</code></p>
22    <p><code>LIBS=`xslt-config --libs`</code></p>
23    <p>Note also that if you use the EXSLT extensions from the program then
24    you should prepend <code>-lexslt</code> to the LIBS options</p>
25  </li>
26  <li><em>passing parameters on the xsltproc command line doesn't work</em>
27    <p><em>xsltproc --param test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml</em></p>
28    <p><em>the param does not get passed and ends up as ""</em></p>
29    <p>In a nutshell do a double escaping at the shell prompt:</p>
30    <p>xsltproc --param test "'alpha'" foo.xsl foo.xml</p>
31    <p>i.e. the string value is surrounded by " and ' then terminated by '
32    and ". Libxslt interpret the parameter values as XPath expressions, so
33    the string -&gt;<code>alpha</code>&lt;- is intepreted as the node set
34    matching this string. You really want -&gt;<code>'alpha'</code>&lt;- to
35    be passed to the processor. And to allow this you need to escape the
36    quotes at the shell level using -&gt;<code>"'alpha'"</code>&lt;- .</p>
37    <p>or use</p>
38    <p>xsltproc --stringparam test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml</p>

40  <li><em>Is there C++ bindings ?</em>
41    <p>Yes for example <a href="http://pmade.org/pjones/software/xmlwrapp/">xmlwrapp</a> , see <a href="python.html">the related pages about bindings</a></p>
