The main objective of the EXIP project is to provide a C library for parsing and serialization of Efficient XML Interchange (EXI) Format streams. The focus is portability and efficiency for embedded systems development.
XDBM is an XQuery implementation on the W3C's EXI binary XML format.
XDBM version 2 will be an XQuery implementation that uses EXIP to handle binary XML in the EXI format adopted by the W3C. It will, like EXIP, aim to be as small as possible so that it runs well on resource constrained devices. It is still in the project design stage.
