Finding all the XML APIs in one handy volume is the real reason to buy this reference work. In the fast-changing world of emerging XML tools and standards, many maintained by open-source organisations, it's virtually impossible to keep up with the classes, APIs and programming strategies needed to work with these tools. This book corrals the chaos with a line-up of the most popular and essential Java XML APIs, such as the popular SAX and DOM standards. The authors also look at Sun's new JAXP (and related bundles), which helps standardise XML coding in Java.
Each API is documented by package, class and method. Many entries have documented sample code showing off just how to use each API, which is a real time-saver for any busy Java developer. While it's possible to decipher open source documents, you'll save countless hours with this handy reference. Besides vendor neutral APIs, the authors also tackle Oracle's XSK for working with XML on that platform.
The second half of this book focuses on XML standards used in Web services, including WSDL and UDDI. Web services are illustrated here with a solid case study for an online auction example. Other samples here include an XML-based configuration with Ant, plus transforming content with XSLT for wireless user interfaces. There's also coverage on "lightweight" XML for mobile devices. Sections on querying using SAX, DOM and XPath 1.0 will help you search XML effectively.
While readers can obviously dig in to these later topics selectively, the main focus here on XML parsers and Web services will more than justify the price of this title for most readers. This book is quite simply a must-have for anyone combining Java and XML, undoubtedly two of today's hottest computing technologies. --Richard Dragan
