TT-4360 --- Processing XML Using Java (JAXP)

Processing XML Using Java is a customized three day in-depth course geared for Java programmers who need to understand how to work with XML from within Java.

Processing XML Using Java is a customized three day in-depth course geared for Java programmers who need to understand how to work with XML from within Java. This intense course focuses on the family of XML-related APIs from the Java world that are oriented towards parsing, transforming, and binding XML. There is a strong theme on performance and best practices throughout the course.

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a standard that is enabling a revolution in web applications and business to business interactions. XML is the basis for Wireless Markup Language (WML), Voice Markup Language (VoiceML), Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), Web Services, and numerous industry initiatives such as ACORD (insurance), PXML (proposal/RFP) and OTA (travel). This course is an intensive, hands-on treatment of how to consume, generate, and transform XML within Java and J2EE applications. The course is a balanced mixture of theory and practical labs designed to take students from the basic fundamentals of XML processing through to the related advanced technologies such as Java/XML interoperability. The students walk through the various APIs in a structured manner to enable them to master the concepts, ideas, and patterns, which are reinforced in the lab exercises.

• Take Before: Students should have basic understanding and experience in the following topics, or attend these courses as a pre-requisite:

• TT4300 Core XML and XSLT

 

This is an intermediary level Java programming course, designed for those needing to process XML from within Java applications.
