This allows you to serialize SAX events, DOM trees, or re-serialize a stream. As a serializer it is a bit limited in it's ability to handle doc type stuff, but in other ways it is quite powerful. Xalan on Apache implements javax.xml.transform. There are other non-apache implementations as well. -scott "Swanson, Brion" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" group.com> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: (bcc: Scott Boag/CAM/Lotus) 08/30/01 10:17 AM Subject: JAXP and serialization APIs Please respond to xerces-j-user I know that JAXP is a common API for parsing XML (that is, you can plug any compliant XML parser in without changing any code), but is there anything like that for serializing a Document? I must be missing something because I'm not finding any serializers that aren't tied to any given package. For example, I'm using Xerces to do my parsing through its implementation of the JAXP API. I'd also like to serialize a Document or two, but it appears that I now must tie my application into some particular implementation - that is to say, Xerces. Is there anyway I can get around this? -------------- Brion Swanson - West Group / Rochester, NY mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
