ANN: Mvp.Xml library v1.0 released (Common, XInclude.NET and XPointer.NETmodules)

[Oleg Tkachenko <oleg@tkachenko.com>]

Hello!

On behalf of the Mvp.Xml Project [1] team I'm glad to announce release 
v1.0 of the Mvp.Xml library.

Mvp.Xml project is developed by Microsoft MVPs in XML technologies and 
XML Web Services worldwide. It is aimed at supplementing .NET framework 
functionality available through the System.Xml namespace and related 
namespaces such as System.Web.Services.

This release includes Common[2], XInclude.NET[3] and XPointer.NET[4] 
modules.

The Common module includes a set of commonly useful classes in 
Mvp.Xml.Common and Mvp.Xml.Common.XPath namespaces, which extend the 
.NET functionality available through the System.Xml and related 
namespaces. They are: XmlSerializerCache, XmlBaseAwareXmlTextReader, 
XmlFragmentStream, XmlNodeFactory, XmlNodeListFactory, 
XmlTransformingReader, XmlParsedWriter, XmlSerializerCache, 
DynamicContext, XPathCache, IndexingXPathNavigator, 
XPathNavigatorReader, XmlNodeNavigator, SubtreeXPathNavigator, 
XPathNavigatorIterator, XPathIteratorReader etc.

The XInclude.NET module provides an implementation of the W3C XML 
Inclusions (XInclude) 1.0 Recommendation and the XPointer Framework 
Recommendation written in C# for the .NET platform. XInclude.NET 
supports XPointer element() Scheme, XPointer xmlns() Scheme, XPointer 
xpath1() Scheme and XPointer xpointer() Scheme (XPath subset only). 
XInclude.NET module currently supports only streamable subset of the 
XInclude, implemented as fast, non-caching, forward-only 
XIncludingReader class found in the Mvp.Xml.XInclude namespace.
Mvp.Xml XInclude.NET module is a successor of the XInclude.NET library. 
Find more on the XInclude.NET module home page.

The XPointer.NET module provides an implementation of the XPointer 
Framework Recommendation written in C# for the .NET platform. 
XPointer.NET supports XPointer element() Scheme, XPointer xmlns() 
Scheme, XPointer xpath1() Schemeand XPointer xpointer() Scheme (XPath 
subset only). XPointer.NET was designed and implemented for the 
XInclude.NET module, but it can be used on its own.

All Mvp.Xml library classes have been been thoroughly tested under 
Microsoft .NET 1.0 and 1.1 on Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003. The 
XInclude.NET module has been tested against XML Inclusions (XInclude) 
Version 1.0, W3C Conformance Test Suite (2004-11-03).
