XNI has absolutely no dependencies on external APIs. So you
can build pure XNI compliant parsers that don't need SAX or
DOM. And most of the Xerces2 reference implementation of XNI
is not dependent on these APIs, either. I say "most" because
the XML Schema validation code uses DOM to hold the grammar
documents in memory as the grammar is compiled for internal
use in validation.
