Re: what is xml most used for
Title: RE: what is xml most used for

Naresh.
I agree, But in its basic form that is what XML was
designed for.
A meta language to define other languages. I
would counter that
even the "data" dabate is that XML is a meta
langauge to define
Data patterns and or specialized languages to
define data patterns.
(mathml, CAML, etc are examples, or the plethoria
of business data
models)
Or to create languages that act on the data
patterns. (Xpath, XSLT.
as examples.)
(SGML and XML are creatures of the same tree
though
XML is a specialized version of SGML)

I
believe, XML, at the moment, is being used for defining new languages (a
new grammer along with semantics, which suits and caters to some specific
requirement). This cames through the most powerful feature of XML - its
extensibility
Today, a plethora of new standards are based on XML -
XSL, WSDL, SGML, MATHML and u can keep on counting..

well I don't really consider data exchange ( in general ) to be a
niche since almost anything can be data
exchange.
I
am just wondering where XML is "fitting in". I know what it has been
hyped to be but want to know more about what it is actually
doing.
Without knowing
what types of specifics you're looking for, I cannot.
:)
Please be more
specific about your request - and if I believe that there is information
that I can provide (some I cannot, for obvious reasons), then I would be
happy to do so.

I was wondering what is the biggest niche that xml has
obtained. Like what
projects are you
using XML for?
