New release of XML Validator and Canonical XML Processor
Date: Fri, 08 Jun 2001 11:55:32 +0100 From: Rob Lugt <roblugt@elcel.com> To: xml-dev@lists.xml.org Subject: Announcement: New release of XML Validator and Canonical XML Processor
Elcel Technology is pleased to announce release 0.11 of their XML command-line tools: the XML Validator and Canonical XML Processor.
ElCel Technology continues to develop these popular utilities that are built on top of their C++ XML Toolkit, which is due for launch this autumn. The utilities are provided free of charge and run on Windows and Linux platforms. They can be obtained from the ElCel Technology web site: http://www.elcel.com/products/.
The main feature new to release 0.11 is support for Entity Resolution using XML catalogs. As most of you already know, an OASIS Technical Committee [1] is currently writing a specification detailing a standard format for XML catalogs. The ElCel Technology implementation is based on a recent draft [2], and will continue to be updated until the specification becomes an OASIS Standard. This feature has been requested many times from our users and we are very pleased to be able to offer a non-proprietary solution that will eventually become a standard.
Other enhancements to the XML Validator include the ability to override the DTD, performance improvements for large DTDs and improved support for Linux platforms. Manual pages detailing the available features are available online from the relevant product pages.
Please feel free to use these tools in your projects.
Regards,
Rob Lugt
