| The Workshop is designed to help you anticipate possible questions, review what you've learned, and begin learning how to put your knowledge into practice. Quiz | 1. | What is an event-driven parser? | | 2. | What standards body was responsible for the creation of SAX? | | 3. | Which important feature was added when SAX was upgraded from version 1.0 to 2.0? |
Quiz Answers | 1. | An event-driven parser iterates through an XML document and calls specific methods in another program as it processes entities in the document being parsed. | | 2. | I admit it, this was a trick question; a standards body did not create SAX. Rather, members of the xml-dev mailing list created it through a grassroots effort. | | 3. | SAX 2.0 added support for namespaces. |
Exercises | 1. | Modify the sample program in this hour so that it reproduces the XML document that is supplied as input. | | 2. | Reproduce the sample program in the language that you do your development in (if it's not Java). |
