The UCW-XML library
|
||
|
|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This library provides a light-weight XML parser built atop <<../ucw/index:,LibUCW>>.
|
||
|
|
It is primarily intended for efficient parsing of huge data sets, where other
|
||
|
|
parsers are too slow and cumbersome.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Its features include:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* High speed and low memory consumption, mainly thanks to efficient LibUCW
|
||
|
|
primitives like fastbufs and mempools.
|
||
|
|
* Multiple interfaces:
|
||
|
|
** SAX-like: callback functions called on various parser events
|
||
|
|
** Pull: for each call of the parser, it returns the next node
|
||
|
|
** DOM-like: returns a data structure describing the whole tree of nodes
|
||
|
|
** Any combination of the above: For example, when given a database with millions
|
||
|
|
of records, you can pull on the top level and ask for DOM of each record
|
||
|
|
separately.
|
||
|
|
* Support of namespaces.
|
||
|
|
* Complies with W3C recommendations on XML 1.0, XML 1.1, and Namespaces in XML 1.0
|
||
|
|
as a non-validating parser, but does not aim to support all frills of other
|
||
|
|
XML-related standards.
|
||
|
|
* Partial support for DTD-driven parsing: basic checks of document structure,
|
||
|
|
filling in default values, expanding user-defined entities.
