NekoPull is an XML document parsing API that
extends the Xerces Native Interface (XNI) to
provide pull parsing functionality. The pull
parsing paradigm is different from tree-based APIs
like the Document Object Model (DOM) and event
stream APIs like the Simple API for XML (SAX) in
that the application controls the parsing of
documents. NekoPull is similar to lex in that the
application requests, or pulls, the document
information one piece at a time instead of having
document information pushed to the application.
