Min, Java Minimal XML parser, is released. This version will parse Minimal XML (aka SML) as specified in the preliminary spec at: http://www.docuverse.com/smldev/minxmlspec.html It supports SAX 1.0 and JAXP (Java API for XML Parsers). You can download the distribution ZIP file at: http://www.docuverse.com/min/ It includes binary and source code JAR files and JavaDoc API documentation. There is also a utility class for converting XML files into MinXML files. You can just use the minimize.bat batch file like this once you have the binary JAR in your CLASSPATH: minimize foo.xml foo.min [UTF-8 | UTF-16] UTF-8 is default. You can use any extension you like although I am using .min because .sml no longer makes sense. On my Celeron laptop, it zips through Minimal XML files at around 6 megabytes of UTF-8 data per second and over 10 megabytes of UTF-16 data per second. Sun's XML parser parses at about 3 megabytes/sec on UTF-8 and 4 megabytes per second on UTF-16. Min used to report events via a custom API called MAX (Minimal API for XML :) but I switched to SAX despite about 10% performance penalty because people would have to rewrite code to use Min. I might release a MAX version later. Please give Min a spin and let me know what you think. Bug reports are obviously welcome. Best, Don Park - mailto:donpark@d...
