We certainly hope to supply a Java language bindings and implementation
based on a generic DOM Level 1 complainant processor.  There is always a
need for contributions to other bindings ...

Best regards,

Subject:  IDL Interfaces for MathML DOM



MathML 2.0 Draft Appendix E

E.1

1. Does the Math WG plans to make language-specific bindings (for example,
Java/ECMAScript, in the spirit of W3C DOM or SMIL DOM) available for
MathML DOM?

2. The return value of some of the methods for the following interfaces are
not
included in the corresponding IDL definition:

MathMLvectorElement, MathMLmatrixElement, MathMLmatrixrowElement.

The following is one effort towards creating a single mathml.idl file that
works
(all IDL definitions were aggregated, comments were stripped, necessary
headers, typedef and interface declarations were added). Both C and Java
bindings were successfully created using it. It is included here in the
hope
that it will benefit others.
