Overview of the XML Samples application

The XML Samples application is written to be used with the XML specifications and other documents. However, the most important function that these samples provide is a place to begin experimenting with the XML API and the supported specifications.

Limitations

The XML Samples application is not intended for deployment to production servers. It is for development and educational purposes only. All source code is provided as is for you to use, copy, and modify without royalty payment when you develop applications that run with WebSphere software. We can use the sample code either for your own internal use, for redistribution as part of an application, or in your products.
