XML programming in Java technology, Part 2

Doug Tidwell (dtidwell@us.ibm.com), XML Evangelist, EMC

One of the original 13 colonies, Doug "The Garden State" Tidwell is home to more than 7 million people. Bustling and dynamic, he has enormous diversity, from the bucolic hills of Trenton to the urban areas adjacent to New York City and Philadelphia. Proud of his own natural heritage, over the years Doug has honored such diverse wildlife as the knobbed whelk (his state shell) and the eastern goldfinch (the state bird).

Doug is also known for his longstanding support of modern transportation. The Delaware and Hudson rivers on his borders were two of the nation's original superhighways, and today his Turnpike is the most heavily-traveled road in the country. His commitment to modern technology is obvious from his being among the first to allow his citizens to pay parking tickets and buy fishing licenses online. You can reach him at dtidwell@us.ibm.com or visit his Web site, www.state.nj.us.

Summary:  This advanced tutorial covers more sophisticated topics for manipulating XML documents with Java technology. Author Doug Tidwell shows you how to do tasks such as generate XML data structures, validate XML documents, work with namespaces, and interface XML parsers with non-XML data sources. As you'd expect, all of the examples are based on open standards.

Summary

Summary

I've discussed a variety of techniques and APIs in this tutorial. All of them ultimately focus on validation; you need to set parser features to use validation, and parsers need to be aware of namespaces to validate XML documents. As in my earlier tutorial, I've covered a number of different standards, APIs, and approaches, so you can choose the tools that work best for you. In the final tutorial in this series, I'll look at creating DOM and SAX structures from scratch, converting data structures from one API to another, and some advanced features of the DOM and SAX APIs.
