MSXML is a Windows system component for developing applications. The Document Object Model library for accessing XML documents is supported.

Brief overview

Microsoft Extensible Markup Language contains a comprehensive set of Application Programming Interfaces, or APIs, for building new software. The tool provides you with several core services:

helper APIs;
XML schema definition;
digital signatures;
XSLT;
SAX API;
and other components.

Normally MSXML is shipped with NET Framework. All Windows versions since Vista include this utility as well. In case the program became corrupted or was mistakenly deleted, users can download a fresh copy and reinstall it.

SDK

The Software Development Kit is available. It contains documentation for writing the code. The main goal is to provide experienced developers with the conceptual and reference data.

DOM

The Document Object Model library is a navigable set of classes that directly reflect the W3C Level 1 specification. They enable you to construct XML documents in the system memory. Compiling and validating the results against a DTD or schema is possible as well. To edit various XML files you can download XML Marker.
