Hi i can't identifiy your problem, i have compile xerces-c-3.1.1 ( latest release ) with the new Intel ParallelStudio XE 2013 Update 1 (c/++ compiler 13.0.1 ) under openSUSE 12.2 x86_64 linux with kernel 3.6.7 without any problems. i'm not a windows user, but i think check your windows developing environment settinga or better tested with the parallstudio xe 2013

hello, There might be different problems causing vc90.pdb to lock: you have a parallel build in the same folder (most often), you are debugging the library in this folder, etc. The fastest way to check - delete vc90.pdb manually and rebuild. --Vladimir

Manually creating the directory "XercesLib_vc90" causes the error to disappear. The absence of the directory seems to correspond with the error code 3 (ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND). However it is not clear why the directory is not being created.
