Re: PyXML not supported, what to use next?

Best of all it is included in the base Python distribution, so no addition hunting required. FWIW, easy_install [1] is making things so that more and more installing stuff is not much additional burden. I'll admit that I've hardly found easy_install to be problem-free, but since it seems to be the wave of the future (and a welcome wave at that) I've pushed for support in recent versions of the XML tools I co-develop: 4Suite [2] and Amara [3]. For many people these are now very easy to install. This is the case for some other third-party XML tools as well.

Is this right thinking?Is there a better solution?I am using lxml as my standard tool of choice. It includes the easy interface of ElementTree and the speed and power of being backed by libxml2 and libxslt. But this mainly cause I have to deal with large XMLs in a fast way. Otherwise pure ElementTree is a very, very nice choice. And it is also our backup choice, when lxml is not available on a system.

You can try ElementTree, it comes with 2.5 (xml.etree.ElementTree). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You can try ElementTree, it comes with 2.5 (xml.etree.ElementTree). Certainly, ElementTree, xml.sax and xml.dom.minidom appear to be viable as standard library solutions for the foreseeable future. Sadly, Python XML activities have fragmented since PyXML was in its prime, reminiscent of that other contentious area of Python standardisation: Web technologies.
