I'm confused too. IMO, XML processing pipelines are much easier to
implement in SAX that with the .NET APIs (this is actually the
1-out-of-10 scenario I alluded to in my previous post). Since the same
interface, ContentHandler, was used for both reading and writing, it was
trivial to plug them together. This is not the case in .NET. Do you mean
a pipeline of readers or a pipeline of writers, but not where one feeds
into the other?
