These are two different issues. XML_UNICODE and XML_UNICODE_WCHAR_T merely
define which encoding Expat uses to report back to the application. It
does not force
all of your application to be wchar_t based, although that would be a
good idea.
Btw, regardless of how you build Expat, it always uses Unicode. Its just
the encoding
that can vary, that is: UTF-8 or UTF-16.
So, what problem are you running into? xmlwf is not necessary for an
application to use Expat.
Its just a helper program, you don't need to build it.
