There are a number of DOM implementations now appearing, (for example a new one from SUN) and I have been trying to add support for them to SAXON. The thing that's missing is a standard interface to build the Document. Can XML-DEV step in to fill the gap? I'm using the following interface, as a starter for ten (sorry, that's a UK game show phrase): public interface DOMBuilder { /** * Define the parser to be used when building the DOM. The DOM implementation is free to ignore this and use its * own parser if it wishes. */ public void setParser (Parser parser); /** * Build the DOM document from an input source. * @param source The InputSource to use. * @return The DOM Document object that results from parsing the input. */ public Document build (InputSource source) throws java.io.IOException, org.xml.sax.SAXException; } I've got implementations of this interface working for the Docuverse and SUN products; anyone see any difficulty in supporting it for other DOM implementations? Are there any other methods that could/should go in the interface? Any ideas where this should belong: part of SAX 2.0? Mike Kay xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers. To post, mailto:xml-dev@i...
