Saxon » SaxonC

Running build-saxonc-commands.sh on CentOS 7 generated errors about the C version, such as:

Transform.c: In function ‘transform’:
Transform.c:33:3: error: ‘for’ loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 mode
   for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
   ^
Transform.c:33:3: note: use option -std=c99 or -std=gnu99 to compile your code

After adding -std=c99 to the GCC command lines, there were errors about int64_t, such as:

In file included from ../Saxon.C.API/SaxonCGlue.c:1:0:
../Saxon.C.API/SaxonCGlue.h:92:3: error: unknown type name ‘int64_t’
   int64_t value; /*!< Internal use only. The value of the parameter points
   ^

That was worked around by adding #include <stdint.h> for __LINUX__ and __APPLE__ in SaxonCGlue.h. I don't know whether #include <stdint.h> would be necessary for __APPLE__.

Also, it's not clear why #include <stdio.h> is included a second time for __LINUX__ and __APPLE__.
