Overview

XML is a general-purpose specification for creating custom mark-up languages. It is classified as an extensible language because it allows its users to define their own elements. Its primary purpose is to help information systems share structured data, particularly via the Internet, and it is used both to encode documents and to serialize data. In the latter context, it is comparable with other text-based serialization languages such as JSON and YAML. As a diverse platform, Java has several solutions for working with XML. This refcard provides developers a concise overview of the different xml processing technologies in Java, and a use case of each technology.

Features include XML File Sample, Parsing Techniques, XML Structure, XPath, Hot Tips and more.
