It doesn’t seem to matter what the problem, XML is the solution. For example, consider a simple client/server architecture where the communication protocol must transmit some sort of structured data. Nine developers out of ten will form the basis of the protocol around XML. If it’s a lot of data to be transferred, then they will compress the XML using Java’s stream compression libraries. If there’s binary data to be transmitted, it will either be stored as CDATA within the XML or as files within the same compressed archive. Very few developers will actually stop and consider alternative solutions. java xml Tue, 15 Jul 2008 20:48:52 GMT http://dzone.com/links/95042.html bloid 2008-07-15T20:48:52Z It’s surprising how universal XML has become.
