An Overview of Modern XML Processing Techniques and APIs
Dare Obasanjo
writes with a link to his article "A Survey of APIs and Techniques for Processing XML" on xml.net. It starts off "In recent times the landscape of APIs and techniques for processing XML has been in the
process of reinventing itself as developers and API
designers learn from their experiences and some past mistakes. APIs such as DOM and SAX which
used to be the bread and butter of XML APIs are
giving way to new models of examining and processing
XML. However although some of these techniques have become widespread amongst developers who
primarily work with XML they are still unknown to
the general body of developers. Nothing highlights
this better than a recent article by Tim Bray one
of the co-inventors of XML entitled
XML
is too Hard for
Programmers and the
subsequent responses on Slashdot." Read the entire article to learn more about the state of the XML art. Added in the missing link.
With the new technology known as a hyperlink, we can simply click a location on the screen and be taken to the article, instead of having to go to xml.net and find it ourself.
