XML Core

This is the home page for the XML Core module.

Introduction

The module is a base for all XML related modules. It recognizes XML and DTD documents, which can be opened in text editor. It supports parsing of those documents into TAX (Tree API for XML) representation. It supports synchronization among document representations. It also holds all settings shared among all XML related modules.

Improve Classification and Binding Framework

Petr Jiricka posted the following interesting mail to nbdev about the Classification Framework Proposal
< - Each predicate would be responsible for listening on changes in objects. When it is used on an object, it is responsible for attaching a listener to it. When the object changes, it is responsible for passing the event on to its listeners.
< - The framework listens on all predicates that have ever been used to classify any object. This way, it is notified about all changes that affect classifications of any object. Iterator it = passes the events on to its listeners.
I'm afraid that each predicate means: all predicates that could be
used in all classifications with higher or equal priority.
Nobody can ever guarantee that a change could not trigger them.

FAQs

How do I tell the XML module that a file with an .xxx extension is an XML file and that the module should handle it as such?

Add xxx to the list of extensions recognized by the XML module.
This feature can be configured under Tools | Options | IDE Configuration | System | Object Types | XML Objects node.
