Efficient XML Interchange Parser
Tue, 09 Sep 2008 07:27:50 +0000 - Author: Peter O.
The file below showcases the work I've done on an EXI (Efficient XML Interchange) parser more than a week ago.
/projects/ExiParser.zip
It implements the fourth working draft of the EXI specification. While the byte-aligned and probably bit-aligned implementations without schemas appear to work well, a major stumbling block was the question of how exactly to derive an EXI schema from an XML schema, since without this information, it will be nearly impossible to read schema-informed XML documents correctly, which is why I stopped work on it more than a week ago.
We may have to wait until more test cases or a Candidate Recommendation status before all this confusion is cleared.
Anyway, I hope this library is useful. It is free to use for any purpose.
