The core part of the parser is actually parser a regular expression. I
tried to use JLex, a parser generator
(http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/java/JLex/manual.html) to do this.=20
But to use JLex, I have to transfer the XML syntax into JLex
specification. So I don't think it is efficient to do that. Perhaps there
are some other lex can to this easily.
