Welcome to the future! Xerces2 is the next generation of
high performance, fully compliant XML parsers in the Apache
Xerces family. This new version of Xerces introduces the
Xerces Native Interface (XNI), a complete framework for
building parser components and configurations that is
extremely modular and easy to program.
The Apache Xerces2 parser is the reference implementation
of XNI but other parser components, configurations, and parsers
can be written using the Xerces Native Interface. For complete
design and implementation documents, refer to the
XNI Manual.
Xerces 2 is a fully conforming XML Schema processor.
For more information, refer to the XML Schema Limitations page.
Xerces 2 also provides a partial implementation of Document Object Model Level 3
Core,
Abstract Schemas and
Load and Save Working Drafts. For more information, refer to the
DOM Level 3 Implementation page.
