<h1>Closure XML Parser</h1>
<p>An XML parser written in Common Lisp.</p>
<p>
Closure XML was written by <a
href="http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~unk6/">Gilbert Baumann</a>
(unk6 at rz.uni-karlsruhe.de) as part of the Closure web
browser.<br>
Contributions to the parser by
<ul>
<li>
Henrik Motakef (hmot at henrik-motakef.de)<br>
(SAX layer; namespace support)
</li>
<li>
David Lichteblau at knowledgeTools &lt;david@knowledgetools.de&gt;<br>
(conversion into an independent package; DOM bug fixing)
</li>
</ul>

<h2>CXML Modules</h2>
CXML provides three packages:
<ul>
<li>
<tt>RUNES</tt>, a portable implementation of Unicode strings.
</li>
<li>
<tt>XML</tt>, a namespace-aware SAX parser implementing the <a
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML 1.0
specification</a>.
</li>
<li>
<tt>DOM</tt>, an implementation of the <a
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/level-one-core.html">DOM
Level 1 Core</a> interfaces.
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<b>Prerequisites.</b> CXML is written in Common Lisp and should be
portable to all Common Lisp implementations.&nbsp; Currently known
to work are ACL, SBCL, CMUCL, and CLISP. (<i>fixme</i>: check
this list)
</p>
</p>
<a href="http://www.cliki.net/asdf">ASDF</a> is used for
compilation. These instructions assume that ASDF has already been
loaded. (Some Lisps include ASDF, for example SBCL and any Lisp
on Debian and Gentoo. For other Lisps please load asdf.lisp
manually before proceeding.)
</p>
<p>
<b>Configuration (optional).</b>
CXML has full Unicode code support -- even on Lisps without
Unicode strings. On non-unicode aware Lisps, <tt>DOMString</tt>
is implemented as an array of character codes. If your Lisp
supports 16 bit characters natively, you can enable feature
<tt>RUNE-IS-CHARACTER</tt> to select an alternative
<tt>DOMString</tt> implementatation, which uses real characters
instead of characters codes.
<pre> * (pushnew :rune-is-character *features*)</pre>
</p>
<p>
<b>Compiling and loading CXML.</b>
Register the .asd file, e.g. by symlinking it:
<pre> $ ln -sf `pwd`/cxms.asd /path/to/your/registry</pre>
Compile CXML using:
<pre> * (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op :cxml)</pre>
</p>
<p>
<h2>Tests</h2>
Check out the XML and DOM testsuites:
<pre> $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@dev.w3.org:/sources/public
$ cvs login # password is "anonymous"
$ cvs co 2001/XML-Test-Suite/xmlconf
$ cvs co 2001/DOM-Test-Suite</pre>
Run all applicable tests using:
<pre> * (xmlconf:run-all-tests "/path/to/2001/XML-Test-Suite/xmlconf/")
* (domtest:run-all-tests "/path/to/2001/2001/DOM-Test-Suite/")</pre>
(As always in Lisp, the trailing slash is significant.)
