5.1.1 Procedure for creating a program using Cosminexus XML Processor

(1) Deciding which package to use

Cosminexus XML Processor provides the packages defined in the JAXP specification, the packages of XSLTC transformer function, and the packages defined in the JAXB specification. When creating a program, select a suitable package for use with the program.

For instance, use DOM when it is necessary to maintain the XML document in memory to change its structure or perform complex operations; use SAX when the processing is performed while interactively parsing the XML document, and use XSLT when the XML document is transformed into any other format such as HTML.

For details about packages provided in the JAXP specifications, see 2.2 JAXP-defined Packages and Their Functionality, for packages of the XSLTC transformer function, see 3.2.3 Class Used by the XSLTC Transformer, and for packages stipulated in the JAXB specifications, see 2.4 JAXB-defined Packages and Their Functionality.
