Where is it defined what is the "output of an xml parser" ? If we don't have that we can't guarantee an xml-er parser is equivalent to it. Suggestion: we say at an XML-ER parser produces an abstract data model ... then its up to which one ... INFOSET ? XDM ? ... Probably INFOSET as XDM drops several artifacts of XML that might be useful to upstream parser . But then that does exclude cases such as supporting invalid XML unicode codepoints. But then I havent read the INFOSET specs in years so I am going on old man braincells here ... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Lee Lead Engineer MarkLogic Corporation dlee@marklogic.com Phone: +1 650-287-2531 Cell: +1 812-630-7622 www.marklogic.com This e-mail and any accompanying attachments are confidential.
