DESCRIPTION="
Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project
(but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software available
under the MIT License. XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup
languages, i.e. text language where semantic and structure are added to
the content using extra "markup" information enclosed between angle
brackets. HTML is the most well-known markup language. Though the library
is written in C a variety of language bindings make it available in other
environments.
Libxml2 implements a number of existing standards related to markup
languages:
- the XML standard: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml
- Namespaces in XML: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/
- XML Base: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/
- RFC 2396 : Uniform Resource Identifiers
- XML Path Language (XPath) 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath
- HTML4 parser: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/
- XML Pointer Language (XPointer) Version 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr
- XML Inclusions (XInclude) Version 1.0: http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/
- ISO-8859-x encodings, as well as rfc2044 [UTF-8] and rfc2781 [UTF-16]
Unicode encodings, and more if using iconv support part of SGML Open

- W3C XML Schemas Part 2: Datatypes REC 02 May 2001
- W3C xml:id Working Draft 7 April 2004
In most cases libxml2 tries to implement the specifications in a
relatively strictly compliant way. As of release 2.4.16, libxml2 passed
all 1800+ tests from the OASIS XML Tests Suite.
To some extent libxml2 provides support for the following additional
specifications but doesn't claim to implement them completely:
- Document Object Model (DOM) http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/
the document model, but it doesn't implement the API itself, gdome2
does this on top of libxml2
- RFC 959 : libxml2 implements a basic FTP client code
- RFC 1945 : HTTP/1.0, again a basic HTTP client code
- SAX: a SAX2 like interface and a minimal SAX1 implementation compatible
with early expat versions
A partial implementation of XML Schemas Part 1: Structure is being worked
on but it would be far too early to make any conformance statement about
it at the moment.
