XML- SAX Parser using JAXP API
In the previous issue of Java Jazz Up you have
read about XML technology. In this issue, you
will learn how XML technology works with Java
using different kinds of XML parsers.
Lets
quickly focus on the overview of XML.
XML is a W3C Recommendations. It stands for
Extensible Markup Language. It is a markup
language much like HTML used to describe data.
In XML, tags are not predefined. A user defines
his own tags and XML document structure like
Document Type Definition (DTD), XML Schema
to describe the data. Hence it is self-descriptive
too. There is nothing special about XML It is
just plain text with the addition of some XML
tags enclosed in angle brackets. In a simple
text editor, the XML document is easily visible.
Below is a list of XML-related technologies:

XSLExtensible Style
Sheet Language) |
XSL consists of three parts: XSLT - a languagefor transforming XML
documents, XPath - a
language for navigating in
XML documents, and
XSL-FO - a language for
formatting XML
documents. |
| |
|
| XSLT(XSL Transformations) |
It is used to transform XML documents into other XML formats, like XHTML. |
| |
|
| XML DOM (XML Document Model) |
Defines a standard way for accessing and Object manipulating XML documents. |
|
|
| Technology |
Document |
| XPath |
It is a language for navigating in XML documents. |
| |
|
| XSL-FO (Extensible Style Sheet Language Formatting Objects) |
It is an XML based markup language describing the formatting of XML data for output to screen, paper or other media . |
| |
|
| XLink (XML Linking Language) |
It is a language for creating hyperlinks in XML documents. |
| |
|
| XPointer (XML Pointer Language) |
It allows the XLink hyperlinks to point to more specific parts in the XML document. |
| |
|
|
It uses XML to define form data. |
| |
|
| XQuery (XML Query Language) |
It is designed to query XML data. |
| |
|
| SOAP (Simple Object
Access Protocol) |
It is an XML-based protocol to let applications exchange
information over HTTP. |
| |
|
| WSDL (Web Services Description Language) |

| |
|
| RSS (Really Simple Syndication) |
It is a format for syndicating news and the content of news-like sites. |
| |
|
| WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) |
It was designed to show internet contents on wireless clients, like mobile phones. |
