<hi/>

The Silfide Working Group is happy to announce the availability of the Silfide
XML Parser (SXP, v0.8 - Sun Sep 6 1998 ), a release of our validating XML
Parser writing in Java.

The SXP entirely implements the XML 1.0 recommendation and most of its
satellite recommendations:

- XML Namespaces (WD 18-05-1998, the old draft)
- Document Object Model Level 1 (DOM Core and XML, PR 08-08-1998)
- XPointer (WD 03-03-1998)
- XLink (WD 03-03-1998)

SXP provides also a driver for the SAX interface (fr.loria.xml.sax.SAXDriver).

Both of the XML and XPointer parsers are developed with the tool JavaCC.

Changes from last revision:

- Implements the DOM Proposed Recommendation 18 August, 1998
- DTD parsing has been improved (with PE inclusion)
- A new NodeFilter interface (to use with, for example, an XMLTreeIterator)
- some bugs has been fixed (thanks for your bug reports)
- some new bugs may have been introduced (!)

Java source files, java classes, some samples and documentation are freely
available here:

SILFIDE is a project of CNRS and AUPELF-UREF. Server SILFIDE, as an
interactive server, wants to offer to the whole of the French-speaking
university community working starting from the language (linguists, teachers,
data processing specialists...) a tool user-friendly and reasoned for the
handling of electronic resources.

A more detailed description of the Silfide project is available here:

We are waiting for all of your comments, questions and suggestions.

Pat.
