• A tutorial and reference for SAX, the Simple API for XML

The Book of SAX includes everything XML and Java developers need to write SAX applications. Specific examples show how to use SAX to solve XML parsing problems that are impractical to address with tree-based technologies-including real-time parsing, very large documents, and high-performance applications. The authors guide readers through the development of picoSAX, a functioning SAX 2.0 XML parser.
