Hi Folks,

Sin #1: Using Java to Process XML

I had an interesting time helping write a procedural scripting

language, once, which is all written in XML and compiles

to XSLT (2.0). Called XTemp, it made it to OASIS committee

spec (but no further). It was interesting to see how XSLT 2.0

could be wrapped into something procedural and more like

a 'normal' programming language (with the usual structures)

and it did seem sensible in principle to use XML to process

XML (we wrote it for querying XML event logs for business

process monitoring and testing). In practise I'm happy to use

languages like Java, C# and PHP for processing XML day-

to-day though.
