Chapter 20. javax.xml and Subpackages

This chapter documents javax.xml and its
subpackages:

java.xml

This simple package simply defines constants for use by its
subpackages. Added in Java 5.0.

javax.xml.datatype

This package contains Java types corresponding to types defined by
XML standards such as W3C XML Schema, XQuery, and XPath.

javax.xml.namespace

This package defines types for working with XML namespaces.

javax.xml.parsers

This package defines parser classes that serve as a wrapper around
underlying DOM and SAX XML parsers, and also defines factory classes
that are used to obtain instances of those parser classes.

javax.xml.transform

This package defines classes and interfaces for transforming the
representation and content of an XML document with XSLT. It defines
Source and Result interfaces to
represent a source document and a result document. subpackages
provide implementations of these classes that represent documents in
different ways.

javax.xml.transform.dom

This package implements the Source and
Result interfaces that represent documents as DOM
document trees.

javax.xml.transform.sax

This package implements the Source and
Result interfaces to represent documents as
sequences of SAX parser events. It also defines other SAX-related
transformation classes.

javax.xml.transform.stream

This package implements the Source and
Result interfaces that represent documents as
streams of text.

javax.xml.validation

This package contains classes for validating XML documents against a
schema.

javax.xml.xpath

This package defines types for the evaluation of XPath expressions in
the context of an XML document.
