Standard API to XSL processors
Subject: Standard API to XSL processors From: keshlam@xxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 12 Jan 1999 09:24:25 -0500 |
What's really needed is a standard way of binding together XML modules of all kinds -- parser, DOM, XSL, renderers, etc. But this seems to fall in the cracks between the various standards groups. Folks have done conversion objects from DOM to SAX and back. But SAX as it now stands is missing some items -- comments and entity references are the ones I know about -- which a fully general XML pipeline would have to handle. And if you're going between two DOM-based environments, it may not be maximally efficient to go into and out of SAX; copying via the DOM APIs would probably be faster. So the pipeline API might have to include some negotiation to find the best transfer mechanism. You'd also want to be able to handle sub-sections of documents (insert/extract). ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research Unless stated otherwise, all opinions are solely those of the author.
