Synopsis
For students in any course on XML-based software development.
As XML technologies move into the mainstream, students need a sophisticated understanding of the key XML tools and technologies for enterprise development. Definitive XML Application Development is the solution. World-renowned open source XML developer Lars Garshol combines practical insight into SAX, DOM, XSLT, and other advanced XML technologies, and example-rich coverage of XML application construction using Java and Python―today's most sophisticated and productive object-oriented languages.

About the Author
LARS MARIUS GARSHOL is a leading XML developer. He created xmlproc, a complete validating XML processor, helped design SAX and translated it to Python, and runs the Free XML Tools Web site, www.garshol.priv.no/download/xmltools/. He is co-founder of Ontopia, a company that provides knowledge management solutions based on XML Topic Maps (XTM) and related technologies.
About the Series EditorCharles F. Goldfarb is the father of XML technology. He invented SGML, the Standard Generalized Markup Language on which both XML and HTML are based. You can find him on the Web at www.xmlbooks.com
From the Back Cover
- Complete developer's guide to XML programming by a leading XML developer

The start-to-finish guide to XML development for every experienced developer!
In this book, leading XML developer Lars Marius Garshol covers every essential aspect of XML programming, from basic principles through advanced techniques, utilizing DOM, SAX, XSLT, XPath, schemas, and other key XML standards. Garshol presents scores of code examples based on Python, a cross-platform language that is exceptionally well suited for XML development. Garshol also presents new insights into XML application design and optimization, as well as complete sample applications. Coverage includes:
- XML for programmers: the XML processing model, namespaces, parsing, document views, and more
- Serialization/deserialization, translation, validation, modification, and information extraction
- SAX event-based processing: basic techniques, data structures, sample applications, tips, tricks, optimization, and advanced APIs
- Event-based alternatives to SAX: native XML parser APIs of Pyexpat, xmlproc, xmllib, and XP
- DOM tree-based processing: fundamental and extended interfaces, serialization, DOM Level 2, performance techniques, and more
- Tree-based alternatives to DOM: qp_xml, groves, and JDOM
- Declarative processing with XSLT and XPath, including advanced XSLT topics: combining multiple stylesheets, precedence, cross-references, messages, and more
- Embedding XSLT engines in applications and writing XSLT and XPath extensions
- XML development in Java with SAX, DOM, JDOM, and XSLT engines
- Processing in depth: schemas, DTD programming, creating XML from HTML and SGML, RSS, and more
You'll even find a quick introductory course in Python and an XML developer's glossary.
Whatever your application-from content management through enterprise application integration-Developing XML Applications gives you the resources, skills, insights, and example code you need to build it right.
"The range of XML application domains is growing dramatically, but there are common strategies and techniques for XML development that apply to all of them. This book provides a systematic and thorough grounding―and a real understanding―that will make you productive quickly."―Charles F. Godfarb
