Java and XMLby Brett McLaughlinIntroduction | Chapter 3, Parsing XML | Chapter 9, Web-Publishing Frameworks
About the Book The first half of the book alternates between XML and Java--one chapter teaches a facet of XML, such as DTDs and XML Schema, or XSLT, and the next chapter discusses how to use that facet from Java, with SAX, DOM, JAXP, and JDOM. Extensive coverage of the major open source parsers is covered, particularly Apache Xerces and Xalan, allowing you to easily download a parser and be up and running in minutes (or hours, depending on your connection speed!).The second half of the book takes the concepts introduced in the first half to the next level. Specific hot topics in the world of Java and XML are covered through practical examples. XML-RPC, XML for configurations, web publishing (using Apache Cocoon), creating and writing XML, and more are all looked at in detail. About the ChaptersChapter 3, "Parsing XML," details the parsing lifecycle and demonstrates the events that can be caught by SAX.Chapter 9, "Web Publishing Frameworks," looks at web-publishing framework, why it matters to you, and how to choose a good one. A Note from the AuthorThroughout the book, I take a real-world view. I've put these examples into production, and this isn't a book about contrived, silly examples that won't help you in your work. I make my living by developing, and tried to pass on some of the solutions to problems I've encountered, while keeping the book relevant and interesting. The latest versions of the various APIs and specifications are covered (SAX 2.0, DOM Level 2, JAXP 1.0, JDOM 1.0, XML-RPC 1.0, XML Schema [4/00], etc.), as well. I hope you enjoy the sample chapters here, and the book when you purchase it. I look forward to hearing from you!
