Xerces-C++ Version 3.0.0 

 Xerces-C++ is a validating XML parser written in a portable subset of C++.
Xerces-C++ makes it easy to give your application the ability to read and write
XML data. A shared library is provided for parsing, generating, manipulating,
and validating XML documents using the DOM, SAX, and SAX2 APIs. For an
introduction to programming with Xerces-C++ refer to the Programming Guide.

 Xerces-C++ is faithful to the XML 1.0 recommendation and many associated
standards (see Features below).

 The parser provides high performance, modularity, and scalability. Source code,
samples and API documentation are provided with the parser. For portability,
care has been taken to make minimal use of templates, no RTTI, and minimal use
of #ifdefs.


Applications of the Xerces Parser 

 Xerces has rich generating and validating capabilities. The parser is used for:

Building XML-savvy Web servers
Building next generation of vertical applications that use XML as their data
format
On-the-fly validation for creating XML editors
Ensuring the integrity of e-business data expressed in XML
Building truly internationalized XML applications
