The best place to look for such information: 
	http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/

There are many parsers there including these:

James Clark has both C and Java parsers available. Freedom of use might be
subject to your making your source available if you redistribute. Read his
(Mozilla) license.
http://www.jclark.com/xml/

Microsoft makes available an xml parser with source in Java through a
technology partner Datachannel which is freely redistributable:
http://www.datachannel.com/xml_resources/

IBM's Alphaworks has the source to an excellent java xml parser which is
freely redistributable (read the license though!):
http://www.alphaWorks.ibm.com/formula/XML

James Clark's parsers are well formed parsers, Microsoft and IBM offer
fully validating parsers.


Hope This Helps
