    What is Apache Xerces?

    The Apache Xerces project provides a robust set of software libraries for working with XML data. The libraries enable developers to parse, validate, serialize, and manipulate XML documents using a variety of standard application programming interfaces (APIs) such as the Document Object Model (DOM), the Simple API for XML (SAX), and SAX2. These libraries are available for implementation in multiple programming languages, including Java, C++, and Perl, allowing developers to leverage the full power of XML processing within their applications
