Subtopics

• Overview of XML support
  Use the XML support provided with this product to work with web applications that process data using standard XML technologies like Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT), XML Path Language (XPath), and XML Query Language (XQuery).

• 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.

• Build and running a sample XML application
  Use the IBM WebSphere Application Server XML thin client, the com.ibm.xml.thinclient_8.5.0.jar file, to build a sample XML application. We can also use the API documentation to improve the understanding of the XML API.

• Use the XML API to perform operations
  Use the IBM XML API to perform operations that use the new and updated W3C XML standards.
