Open Source Linux XML Parsers

PLEASE NOTE that we are in the process of moving to GitHub: https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat This is James Clark's Expat XML parser library in C. It is a stream oriented parser that requires setting handlers to deal with the structure that the parser discovers in the document.

TinyXML is a simple, small, minimal, C++ XML parser that can be easily integrating into other programs. It reads XML and creates C++ objects representing the XML document. The objects can be manipulated, changed, and saved again as XML. *Please Note* that TinyXML development has stopped and all development has moved to TinyXML-2. TinyXML-2 is available at https://github.com/leethomason/tinyxml2

RapidXml is an attempt to create the fastest XML parser possible, while retaining useability, portability and reasonable W3C compatibility. It is an in-situ parser with parsing speed approaching speed of strlen function executed on the same data.

An XML parser C library that's simple and easy to use. Inspired by simpleXML for PHP.

Simple XML parser written in C, with limited XPath and Unicode support and customizable tags. 'Simple' means that it does not implement all XML specifications, only the most widely used ones.

VTD-XML is the next generation XML parser/indexer/editor/slicer/assembler/xpath-engine that goes beyond DOM, SAX and PULL in performance, memory usage, and ease of use.

NunniMCAX is a minimal (19KB) C library for parsing XML. The API recall SAX and is sequential and event-driven. The parser strives to verify that the XML is well-formed, but no validation. NunniMCAX's FSM has been generated using NunniFSMGen

An XML parser written in the REXX programming language. It runs on mainframes (z/OS Rexx) as well as Windows and Linux (Regina or ooRexx). Includes example Rexx programs that use the parser such as: JCL2XML (converts z/OS JCL into an XML format), AUX2SVG (converts a z/OS CICS auxiliary trace file into a visual SVG format), PRETTY (an XML pretty printer), DEVISIO (an example of removing unwanted tags from an SVG file).

EDIReader parses EDI input from ANSI X12 and EDIFACT, including documents for HIPAA compliance. It supports Java JAXP/SAX XML interfaces with a custom implementation of an "XML" parser, allowing access to EDI data with XML tools.

Instigate XML Parser is a wrapper library around various XML parsing front-ends. It provides single API and ability to switch between supported front-ends without modifying the client code.

eXML is a XML Parser Framework for Eiffel. It features a native Eiffel parser and expat (using a C-bridge). Please note that we are using the mailing list at http://www.egroups.com/group/exml (and not the one on SF)

MuLanPa is a source-analyser with a configurable parser and may be may be used for several programming-languages. Its xml-output should be used for tools like project-browsers or code-viewers like moritz (www.sourceforge.net/projects/moritz/) .

A lightweight PHP library for interpreting IMS QTI files. This is a very simple framework which sits on top of PHP's "Expat" XML parser, intended largely as a template for using QTI in PHP applications - but includes a basic test-taking functionality.

Sparta is a lightweight Java XML package that includes an XML parser, a DOM, and an XPath interpreter. The code-size is small, the parser is fast, the object memory size is small, and the DOM API is clean and simple.

WSFuzzer is a fuzzing penetration testing tool used against HTTP SOAP based web services. It tests numerous aspects (input validation, XML Parser, etc) of the SOAP target. It is only to be used against targets that have granted permission to be teste

An efficient little program to simply parse XML files to find contents of different sets of tags, whichever you please. Can also return a list of all the XML tags in relation to their content.

The simple XML parser is a tiny parser for a subset of XML (everything except entities and namespaces). It uses a simple "one-handler per tag" interface and is suited for use with devices with limited resources.

AsmXml is a very fast XML parser library for x86 platforms written in pure assembler.

The Colibri Widgets are based on curses (pure C with OO facilities). The integrated xml parser should make it easy to develop your own curses application.

DOMIT! is a Document Object Model (DOM) XML parser for PHP, written purely in PHP. It is mostly compliant with the DOM Level 2 specification.

Dapar is a universal parsing library written in C. It will interpret any grammar you give it in a BNF-like format, and constructs a matching expression tree for any given input. This makes developing a new parser for any language simple and reliable. Includes an ABNF parser, EBNF parser, XML parser and algebraic math parser.

A full XML Parser for PHP with RSS Parser specific functionsl; think of it as an interface to the PHP DOM which allows easy access to your XML based documents. Auto encoding conversion to UTF-8 + Array to XML Conversion. V3 is now a commercial product

Command line XML parser using "expat" libraries allowing you to on the fly extract / add / modify / delete / split / format / unformat / count tag value, name and attributes. Usefull for shell scripting on UNIX or Linux based systems.

A C++ XML Parser and validator.

Small XML to ASCII Parser written in Perl as an OO-Perl Module. Can be used to extract pure ascii text from a given xml document. Later: extract text from web documents, or given arrays and hashs.
