Re: [xml-dev] better (?) than DOM

["John Avery" <j.avery@ballarat.edu.au>]

Talking of convenience I have recently been building messages based on
XML Schemas using the XERCES XML Schema API. I think it too could use
some shortcuts. Even what to me seem relatively simple, and probably
common queries like getting a list of the allowable children of an
element can (by the time you check decleration types and the like) take
about 15 method calls.

Does anyone know of any projects that provide more user friednly API's
for XML Schema (preferably still fitting within the Xerces
architecture)?
