java xml soap: Processing XML with Java


Processing XML with Java™: A Guide to SAX, DOM Java, JDOM, JAXP, and TrAX, java xml database. This book and tutorial is written for experienced Java developers who want to integrate XML into their systems. Java is the ideal language for processing XML documents. Its strong Unicode support in particular made it the preferred language for many early implementers. Consequently, more XML tools have been written in Java than in any other language. More open source XML tools are written in Java than in any other language. More developers process XML in Java than in any other language.

Processing XML with Java™ will teach you how to
Save XML documents from applications written in Java
Read XML documents produced by other programs
Search, query, and update XML documents
Convert legacy flat data into hierarchical XML
Communicate with network servers that send and receive XML data
Validate documents against DTDs, schemas, and business rules
Combine functional XSLT transforms with traditional imperative Java code


Processing XML with Java™: A Guide to SAX, DOM, JDOM, JAXP, and TrAX is intended for Java developers who need to do anything with XML. It teaches the fundamentals and advanced topics, leaving nothing out. It is a comprehensive course in processing XML with Java that takes developers from having little knowledge of XML to designing sophisticated XML applications and parsing complicated documents. The examples cover a wide range of possible uses, including file formats, data exchange, document transformation, database integration, and more.
