Expat, the C-based XML parser originally created by James Clark, has had a new release, including build support for Windows.

Part of many popular applications, including Apache and Mozilla, Expat moved to a SourceForge project some time ago as software authors whose applications depended on it wished to improve its portability.

The latest release, 1.95.2, includes the following changes:

• Will build on Windows with Visual C++
• Added a Windows installer, includes the xmlwf.exe program
• Changes to improve Unix portability
• Fix UTF-8 BOM bug

A full changelog is available at SourceForge, as is the source code and binaries.
