Java and XMLJava and XML now includes the Java API for XML (JAX). JAX includes JAXB, JAXM, JAXP and other API. Java and XML also includes DOM/JDOM, XSL/XSLT and Schemas.Making the Most of JDBC with WebRowSet By Sharad Acharya Database to XML and back again. If everyone's doing some or all of this, then shouldn't we write it once, get it right, and standardize? JDBC 3.0's WebRowSet offers a profound increase in power over the old ResultSet. Sharad Acharya shows you what's possible. Jun. 21, 2006 Storing an XML Document in Apache Xindice By Deepak Vohra Apache Xindice is a database that's built specifically for storing XML data, meaning you can forget about attempting to map your XML-to-database tables and just store it as is, exploiting the structure nature of the XML data to pick up some query-time conveniences. Deepak Vohra introduces this database and shows how to make it work. Mar. 8, 2006 Playing Together Nicely: Getting REST and SOAP to Share Each Other's Toys By Jason R.

Briggs introduces a SOAP interface that can be used to deliver SOAP messages from REST resources. Feb. 15, 2006 Exploring Laszlo Classes, Attributes, and Events By Satya Komatineni Laszlo offers an interesting option for rich client-side GUIs--XML markup of widgets and their event handling, which is then converted into a Flash executable that is run with the Flash plugin in the user's browser. Satya Komatineni introduces Laszlo and shows how to get started writing web applications with it. Jun. 15, 2005 Parsing an XML Document with XPath By Deepak Vohra Pulling just a single node value or attribute from an XML document can be inefficient if you have to parse over a whole list of nodes you don't want, just to get to one you do. XPath can be much more efficient, by letting you specify the path to the desired node up front. J2SE adds XPath support, and the JDOM API also offers support through an XPath class. Deepak Vohra looks at both approaches.

May. 5, 2004 Understanding JAXB: Java Binding Customization By Sayed Hashimi JAXB, Java Architecture for XML Binding, is a specification (or standard) that automates the mapping between XML documents and Java objects and vice versa. One of the primary components of JAXB is the schema compiler. The schema compiler is the tool used to generate Java bindings from an XML schema document. If used in its default mode (for non-trivial applications), the compiler usually generates bindings that are awkward to work with. This article will look at various methods you can use to customize the generated bindings.

Oct. 22, 2003 XML Parsing in a Producer-Consumer Model By Prabu Arumugam Decent APIs such as SAX have made XML parsing much easier than in the old DOM and pre-DOM days. That doesn't mean it's completely natural, though, in all circumstances. Throw XML parsing into a multithreaded application and things can get weird quickly. That's where a different approach can help. Prabu Arumugam demonstrates the producer-consumer model, which can allow multithreaded XML processing. Oct. 8, 2003 SearchAssist: A Portable Search Engine in Java By Ashwin Jayaprakash While server-side Java solves many problems, it's not always available.

Oct. 1, 2003 Putting XML in LDAP with LDAPHttp By Jon Roberts XML is great for transferring information, but it really falls down as a searchable store. Mapping XML into a relational database is, well, tricky. Jon Roberts demonstrates that a directory database (LDAP, for example) makes a nice compromise while building a weblog commentary system.

Jul. 2, 2003 Developing E-Business Interactions with JAXM By Nikhil Patil RPC-style web services are getting a lot of press, but sometimes transferring a document is more important than calling a remote procedure. Nikhil Patil explores JAXM, the Java API for XML Messaging, which allows document-style web services. Apr. 30, 2003 Using Hierarchical Data Sets with Aspire and Tomcat By Satya Komatineni While much of the database world is relational, a great deal of data is hierarchical--think web pages, XML, and Java classes.
