Java and XSLT

Name

Package: javax.xml.parsers

Synopsis

The classes in this package support parsing using Simple API for XML (SAX) 2 and Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2. These classes do not perform the actual parsing work; instead, they delegate to plugable parser implementations such as Apache’s Crimson or Xerces.

DocumentBuilder

Instances of this class define an API for parsing XML from a variety of input sources, as well as for creating new DOM Document objects from scratch. The DocumentBuilder instance should be obtained from the DocumentBuilderFactory instance. Once an instance has been obtained, the newDocument( ) method can be used to construct new DOM Document objects without resorting to the implementation of specific code.
