Description
Pro Apache XML thoroughly introduces several subprojects found under the Web Services-driven API umbrella. The book begins with a concise introduction to XML and Web Services. Subsequent chapters devote themselves to specific subprojects--covering their purposes, APIs, implementation, and practical uses through appropriate code examples. Additional material includes
- Introductions to several of the Apache Foundation's hottest projects, including Xerces, Axis, and Xindice
- Building XML-driven websites using the popular Cocoon project
- Transforming XML-based documents into a variety of formats, including PDF, SVG, and PS, using the Formatting Objects Processor (FOP) project
You'll learn to perform tasks like validation, parsing, transformation, and storage--and how to work with this information through a programming interface. You may either read this book from cover to cover or jump to any desired subproject for a detailed study of its implementation. All programming examples use the Java programming language. |
