Description:

"Programmingwith libxml2 is like the thrilling embrace of an exotic stranger." MarkPilgrim Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project(but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software availableunder the MITLicense. XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e.text language where semantic and structure are added to the content usingextra "markup" information enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the mostwell-known markup language. Though the library is written in C a variety of language bindings make it available inother environments. Libxml2 is known to be very portable, the library should build and workwithout serious troubles on a variety of systems (Linux, Unix, Windows,CygWin, MacOS, MacOS X, RISC Os, OS/2, VMS, QNX, MVS, VxWorks, ...) Libxml2 implements a number of existing standards related to markuplanguages: the XML standard: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml Namespaces in XML: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/ XML Base: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/ RFC 2396 : Uniform Resource Identifiers http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt XML Path Language (XPath) 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath HTML4 parser: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/ XML Pointer Language (XPointer) Version 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr XML Inclusions (XInclude) Version 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/ ISO-8859-x encodings, as well as rfc2044 [UTF-8] and rfc2781 [UTF-16] Unicode encodings, and more if using iconv support part of SGML Open Technical Resolution TR9401:1997 XML Catalogs Working Draft 06 August 2001: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/spec-2001-08-06.html Canonical XML Version 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-c14n and the Exclusive XML Canonicalization CR draft http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-exc-c14n Relax NG, ISO/IEC 19757-2:2003, http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/relax-ng/spec-20011203.html W3C XML Schemas Part 2: Datatypes REC 02 May 2001 W3C xml:id Working Draft 7 April 2004 In most cases libxml2 tries to implement the specifications in arelatively strictly compliant way. As of release 2.4.16, libxml2 passed all1800+ tests from the OASIS XML TestsSuite. To some extent libxml2 provides support for the following additionalspecifications but doesn't claim to implement them completely: Document Object Model (DOM) http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/ the document model, but it doesn't implement the API itself, gdome2 does this on top of libxml2 RFC 959 : libxml2 implements a basic FTP client code RFC 1945 : HTTP/1.0, again a basic HTTP client code SAX: a SAX2 like interface and a minimal SAX1 implementation compatible with early expat versions A partial implementation of XML Schemas Part1: Structure is being worked on but it would be far too early to make anyconformance statement about it at the moment. Separate documents: the libxslt page providing an implementation of XSLT 1.0 and common extensions like EXSLT for libxml2 the gdome2 page : a standard DOM2 implementation for libxml2 the XMLSec page: an implementation of W3C XML Digital Signature for libxml2 also check the related links section for more related and active projects.
