SL-385 --- Managing XML with the Java Platform

The Managing XML With the Java Platform course focuses on parsing, managing, and using XML (Extensible Markup Language) documents and data through programs written in the Java programming language.

The Managing XML With the Java Platform course focuses on parsing, managing, and using XML (Extensible Markup Language) documents and data through programs written in the Java programming language. XML is called "portable data," and Java technology is called "portable code." Used together, XML and Java technology are a powerful combination for Internet and Web application solutions.

This course focuses on writing programs that parse and manage XML documents using the Java API for XML Parsing (JAXP), which includes coverage of the Simple API for XML (SAX) and Document Object Model (DOM) interfaces. After students become familiar with parsing and managing XML documents, discussion turns to major areas in which XML and Java technology are being used in Internet and Web applications today, including web presentation, business-to-business (B2B) solutions, and databases.

* Java Programming Language (SL-275-SE6)
* Demonstrate an understanding of XML syntax
* Write, compile and run Java applications that include handling exceptions and using classes and interfaces from the Java
* Development Kit(JDK)
* Describe distributed computing and its major concepts

Software engineers, software developers, application developers, and technical managers who will develop applications that process, manage, and manipulate XML data or document.
