Hi,
the error message is probably some misleading, and usual for
CodeWarrior (grrr).
The real prob is the difference between const xmlChar* and xmlChar*;
the prototype of _node_as_zval() has as 6th param 'xmlChar *nsprefix'
defined where - as you already pointed out - nodeptr->ns->href is 'const
xmlChar*'; therefore your suggestion fails in same way since it would
also assign the (const xmlChar*)nodeptr->ns->href to (xmlChar*)href
without a cast.

So I would stay with a proper cast according to the prototype:

Why is nodeptr->ns->href being detected as const void * by CodeWarrior?

It is of cont xmlChar * (libxml tree.h).
Does it compile using the following?

xmlChar *href = nodeptr->ns ? nodeptr->ns->href : NULL;
_node_as_zval(sxe, nodeptr->parent, value, SXE_ITER_ATTRLIST, 
(char*)nodeptr->name, href, 0 TSRMLS_CC);

Description:
------------
compilation of simplexml for NetWare with CodeWarrior compiler breaks
because of different types without using a cast:

Compiling simplexml.c...
simplexml.c:1236: illegal implicit conversion from 'const void *' to
simplexml.c:1236: 'unsigned char *'

Errors caused tool to abort.
make: *** [release/simplexml.obj] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `C:/php5_test/php-5.2.7RC1/ext/simplexml'



Reproduce code:
---------------
compile...

Expected result:
----------------
compile doesnt break.

Actual result:
--------------
compile breaks.

suggested fix:
