    Hi
    i need to get an xml parser for Apache running on solaris 2.8.

    i've been told that it has to be Apache Xerces which is from http://xml.apache.org/ .

    fine i hear you say, but the choice there is huge.
    Either in C++, Java or Perl.

    ideas, comments?

    Xerces is an XML parser. Cocoon is an XSL engine/application server (that actually uses Xerces, afaik) and SOAP is an XML based protocol (with implementations by various vendors on various platforms). All three are quite different creatures.

    There are various XML parsers out there and Xerces is considered to be one of the better ones (if not the best).

    I've never used it meself now, but if I was you I'd go for Cocoon (Java), it's the most mature of the Apache XML projects. Failing that, go for SOAP.

    I've used Xerces Java a fair bit, it's really good. Go with the one you know best.
    As for XSL parseing go for Xalan. Really nice.

    Ah well, you learn something new every day. I still say Cocoon is mature. Look at how mature they all were in the movie! smile.gif

    Which oddly enough is how it got it's name. When the original author was tring to think of a name, it was on the telly... and the rest is history...
