Parsifal is minimal non-validating XML parser written in ANSI C. Parsifal
|
|
implements the subset of SAX2 including namespace support.
|
|
|
|
Parsifal can be used for parsing XML based messages (such as SOAP and RSS) and
|
|
for application specific data processing e.g. config files, data files etc.
|
|
Parsifal can also be used for limited document-oriented processing and for
|
|
parsing modular documents because it contains supports for internal and
|
|
external general entities - it doesn't support currently parameter entities or
|
|
other DTD features. Parsifal can be used for processing large data files and
|
|
streams too since its SAX based and consumes very little memory not to mention
|
|
it is fast enough for most purposes 'cos its written in C.
|
|
|
|
Using Parsifal in place of large XML processing libraries (e.g. libxml, xerces)
|
|
or even in the place of small Expat (which is considerably bigger and more
|
|
complicated) can be justified for limited memory environments and in
|
|
applications requiring bundled parser. If you need higher level tools, for
|
|
example library supporting DTD validation or dom/xpath processing, you should
|
|
look for other libs of course.
