This is the most current book available on XML. Not only does it cover all the stuff I was looking for (including XML Schema), it covers the latest version of the specifications (many as late as April!). I found SAX 2.0 (the final release, even) and the latest XML Schema, both of which I am using at my company, and needed up-to-date support. The book is even more accurate than some of my favorite web page resources!It also covers JDOM, something the author wrote, which makes my life so much easier - I had to use DOM before, and JDOM is much simpler. It also compares JDOM and DOM in the code samples (side by side) so I got to see exactly where the differences were. Finally, a hidden gem - this book covered RSS! Something I hardly knew about, we are now doing our entire portal site in RSS thanks to "Java and XML". Pick it up - more in here than I even knew was useful, plus all the examples work (! ) and are not silly Hello World things. |
