XML Parser(s)

Overview

These goodies implement XML Parsers and provide hierarchies of classes to represent XML documents/objects.

For historic reasons, there are actually three packages included, each one implementing an XML Parser and additional support classes (to represent a DOM tree, for example):

The Indelv Free XML Parser
VW - Cincoms Free validating XML Parser
YAXO - Yet another XML framework

The Indelv Parser is only provided for backward compatibility, and no longer maintained. Please migrate existing projects to use one of the other parsers and do not use this one for new projects (unless you plan to maintain it yourself). We recommend using the YAXO framework for new projects.
