Dear members of xml-dev list,
I'm glad to announce the 0.10 beta release of Candle.
http://www.candlescript.org/ is an open-source
(MPL) scripting language that unifies the core
features of many XML-related technologies (including XSLT, XQuery,
XQuery Update, RELAX NG, BNF, XHTML, SVG and more). It can be used to
rapidly develop command-line, desktop and Internet applications.
This new release introduces
a new hierarchical http://www.candlescript.org/doc/candle-markup-reference.htm#namespace and adds support
for a new http://www.candlescript.org/doc/candle-markup-reference.htm#object-notation. You can find out more details from the updated reference
documents, as well as my 3 new blogs:
- http://candleapp.blogspot.com/2011/11/who-needs-xml.html: I talked about the problems of XML as a general data-exchange
format, especially when used for structured data.
- http://candleapp.blogspot.com/2011/11/markup-notation-better-then-ever.html: I showed how Candle unifies
XML
markup data model with OOP object data model, and its advantages
comparing to formats like XML, JSON, JavaFX literal object and
YAML.
- http://candleapp.blogspot.com/2011/11/examples-speak-for-themselves.html: I showed how Candle Markup can
effectively express
different kinds of structured data, like iCanlendar Record, SVG, MathML,
DOT graph language, POV-Ray SDL, and Lua
configuration.
Among the http://blog.jclark.com/2010/12/microxml.html suggested by Jams Clark: XML 2.0, XML.next,
MicroXML, Candle Markup is
definitely along
the XML.next line. Whether there's any merit in it, I'd like to
hear your comments.
Henry
