XML parser in Java to read and write data in XML

The Xerces2 parser is a high performance parser that is completely written in Java. This version of the Xerces parser introduces a new framework called the Xerces Native Interface (XNI).

With this framework you can build parser configurations and components easily. It conforms to the Schema processor. This Xerces2 processor implements DOM Level 3 Core and supports OASIS XML Catalogs v1.1.

If you want to know the details of the implementation of the XNI then you can very well refer to the implementation documentation at http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/xni.html.

With Xerces you can parse the XML documents that conform to the XML 1.1 specifications. However, checking of normalization is not provided at this stage.

Lot of Xerces samples are provided in the website URL,

The samples are organized in to programming areas or the type of API used. You can refer to these samples to use a particular type of API.
