XML Training

XML Programming Using Java

This course builds skills in Java’s XML processing APIs – chiefly parsing using SAX and DOM and transformations using XSLT, all using the Java API for XML Processing, or JAXP.

It also covers the newer Java API for XML Binding, or JAXB, which standardizes serialization according to XML Schema. The course is intended for students with a working knowledge of XML – and possibly DTDs or XML Schema – who want to build XML applications or components using the Java language. Everything in the course adheres to W3C and Java standards for completely portable code.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the use of SAX and DOM APIs for XML parsing.
  • Understand the need for JAXP as an additional layer to the standard contract between applications and parsers.
  • Use JAXP to write entirely portable XML parsing code.
  • Parse element and attribute content, processing instructions, and other document information using SAX.
  • Parse documents using the DOM.
  • Modify, create and delete information in an XML document using the DOM.
  • Use DOM Traversal to simplify and make parsing algorithms more effective.
  • Use DOM Mutation Events to track changes to an XML document.
  • Use the JAXB to generate persistent Java object models based on XML Schema.
  • Implement XML persistence using the JAXB.
  • Write simple and complex queries into XML document content using XPath.
  • Use XSLT for XML-to-XML transformations.
  • Use the built-in template rules correctly to process the right source information.
  • Use mode and priority to control template matching.
  • Control exact production of text, HTML and XML elements, and whitespace.
  • Derive source document content and make copies of node trees.
  • Use looping and conditional processing to manage output production.
  • Build J2SE and Web applications that leverage XSLT transformation logic.
