Java comes with a set of tools to process XML. These Java XML tools are:
- SAX Parser
- StAX Parser
- DOM Parser
- XPath Evaluator
- XSL Processor
- JAXB
These are the Java XML processing tools this tutorial is focused on. The text Java & XML Tool Overview will tell you enough about each tool to get an idea of how they work, and what situations they are intended for. Each tool then has its own few pages showing how to use it and the features it has.
In addition to these tools the Java community has provided a set of tools too. Here are some of them:
I have currently not planned to write about the community tools, but I may change my mind later, and write a few introductory texts.
