Apache's Xerces XML parser?

[jgunn]

Has anyone tried to use the Xerces C++ XML parser available here:

http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/index.html

I don't know much about it, I'm trying to get it set up for a friend; but what I'm really wondering is if I can download the Linux binary they have available on that site, or if I have to compile my own. I'd appreciate any input on this.

Thanks,

Jeff
