XMLS any more. There is now a mode using pairs of local name
and namespace URI, and a second mode using qualified names
only. The old behaviour using pairs of prefix and local names
was removed. (Thanks to Douglas Crosher.)

<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/>

CXML implements a <a

|
|
validating <a
|
|
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML 1.0</a>
|
|
parser as well as the <a
|
|
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/">DOM Level 2 Core</a>
|
|
interfaces. Two parser interfaces are offered, one SAX-like, the
|
|
other similar to StAX.

XMLS compatibility is not <i>bug-for-bug</i>-compatible with

<li><b>cxml.asd has been split up into <tt>cxml.asd</tt> for the
|
|
XML parser and <tt>runes.asd</tt> for the runes package, in
|
|
preparation of a complete split of the two systems. Future CXML
|
|
releases will use separate tarballs for <tt>runes</tt>
|
|
and <tt>cxml</tt>.</b></li>
|
|
<li>xml:base support (SAX and Klacks only, not yet used in DOM).
|
|
See documentation <a href="sax.html#saxparser">here</a> and <a
|
|
href="klacks.html#locator">here</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>New class <tt>broadcast-handler</tt> as a generalization
|
|
of the older <tt>sax-proxy</tt>.</li>
|
|
<li>New class <tt>tapping-source</tt>, a klacks source that
|
|
relays events from an upstream klacks source unchanged, while also
|
|
emitting them as SAX events to a user-specified handler at the
|
|
same time.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed attributes to carry an lname even when occurring
|
|
without a namespace. Added new functions attribute*,
|
|
unparse-attribute, and macro with-element*, with-namespace* to
|
|
the SAX generation wrapper API.</li>
|
|
<li>Klacks improvements: Incompatibly changed
|
|
klacks:find-element and find-event to consider the current event
|
|
as a result. Added klacks-error, klacks:expect, klacks:skip,
|
|
klacks:expecting-element. Fixed serialize-event to generate
|
|
start-prefix-mapping and end-prefix-mapping events. New function
|
|
map-current-namespace-declarations.</li>
|
|
<li>fixed build with common-lisp-controller</li>
