Re: [xml-dev] embedded XML parser

Depending on your footprint requirements:

    http://www.gnu.org/software/classpathx/jaxp/

That includes AElfred2.  It's licensed under "GPL plus
library exception" so the library is appropriate for use
when linking with proprietary software.  If you don't
link layers like JAXP, DOM, validation, and so on, the
AElfred2 parser component by itself is pretty small.
And unlike XP, it's maintained (and talks SAX2).

p.s. FYI that "GPL plus library exception" license
    is the same one used by the runtime for the GNU
    Compiler for Java (GCJ), with the specific intent
    of letting such software be used in embedded
    systems contexts.  I'm told it's also called the
    "Guile" license -- embedded Scheme has the
    same kind of licensing restrictions.

Subject: [xml-dev] embedded XML parser


I am looking for an open source XML parser with a 
small footprint that I can port to an embedded system. 
Are there candidates other than James Clarke's XP that 
I should consider?
