Eight years after the invention of XML, DOM and SAX,
despite their respective issues, are still the mainstays
of application
developers.
So is it the end of road for XML parsing
innovation?
XimpleWare thinks not. We are proud to announce the
availability of both C and Java version 1.5 of VTD-XML,
the next
generation open-source XML parser that goes
beyond DOM and SAX in terms of
performance, memory
usage and ease of use.
The technical
highlights of VTD-XML are:
* Performance: the world's fastest XML parser,
between 5x~10x faster than DOM
* Memory Usage: 3x to 5x less than DOM,

* Random access with built-in XPath
support
* A simple and intuitive API
Other advanced features include:
