Description Hervé Quiroz 2004-03-30 19:10:11 UTC
Common API for XML Pull Parsing (XmlPull) is an effort to define a simple and
elegant pull parsing API that will provide a standardized way to do pull XML
parsing from J2ME to J2EE.

It is a minimalist API: very easy to implement standalone or on top of existing
parser. The API allows both fast high level iteration (using next() method) and
low level tokenizing (using nextToken() token) and is designed for easy
building on top of it SAX, XML pull parsers that uses iterators with event
objects, or even DOM implementations. To support J2ME and real small
implementation parsing of DOCDECL is optional (but DOCDECL can be reported if
requested).

The aim is to provide a similar but orthogonal pull parsing basis to widely
successful push parsing SAX API. The XmlPull API is in public domain in hope
that it will be embraced by Java developers (conformance tests are under LGPL
license to minimize risk of incompatible implementations).

Just in case you ask, this port is needed for my upcoming XPP3 port,
which is amongst the dependencies of Dom4J, which I plan to port.

So the final objective here is the port of Dom4J. But instead of porting
it as a monolithic, self-contained one, I would rather like to port it
as a set of small components...

Please be patient, there are literally hundreds of new ports 
waiting here and our manpower is limited.. 

Anyway, this does not build. Smells like a missed dependency 
on ant.
