Book Synopsis

XML is one of today's most important technologies -- it is supported natively by many databases, and technologies, and is the logical choice for a powerful data medium transferable across applications and platforms. Many older references are large tomes, and are now very old. This book takes a streamlined approach, giving the reader all they need to hit the ground running, without making them trawl through hundreds of pages of syntax. The book is also thoroughly up-to-date, covering the newest XML standards (DOM 3.0, XSLT 2.0, XPath 2.0) and Java tools (including JAXB, Xerces2-j, JAXP, XML Beans, and many more, ) and the relevant new features of Java 5 and 6. In short, Pro XML Development with Java gives readers all they need to master cutting edge XML development with Java.

Review Quotes

From the reviews:

"This book is about XML development with the Java language, and the large number of examples makes it useful for developers of all levels. ... It is really difficult to find drawbacks with this book since it covers all Java API extensible languages through commented examples. This is the XML development with Java reference book. It will help anyone learn all XML development aspects step by step. I highly recommended it." (Karim Hadiar, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (3), March, 2008)
