Subject:    Announcement: AElfred 1.2, with SAX 1.0gamma support

A new version of Microstar's AElfred XML parser is available at the following URL:

    http://www.microstar.com/XML/AElfred/*

*[corrected]

There are several user-visible changes since version 1.1:

  1. the XmlParser.parse method for parsing from a URI now has a third argument (for an encoding, if known);
  2. The XmlHandler.resolveEntity method is more powerful: you may return a String (for a URI), an InputStream, _or_ a Reader. If you return null, the parser will take the default action.
  3. The SAX driver has been updated to SAX 1.0gamma (released 1 May 1998). SAX is available from http://www.megginson.com/SAX/

All the best,

David
