    <p>I am currently developing an RSS feed reader, and I am wondering which XML parsing API would be the best fit for that. (Please note that I am not looking for a Feed parser library - it is merely the starting point for that research about XML APIs) </p> <p>I am looking for a rundown of the various XML parsing APIs on the Java platform, focusing on the following criteria:</p> <ul> <li>Ease of configuration <ul> <li>Is the configuration in a separate file? </li> <li>Are there reasonable defaults?</li> </ul></li> <li>Ease of use <ul> <li>Node navigation - to siblings, to children, to the parent.</li> <li>Access/Manipulation of Namespaces, Attributes, Text.</li> <li>Is the class hierarchy well-thought or natural?</li> </ul></li> <li>Invalid XML - what happens (when does it fail?), and what can I do when: <ul> <li>an invalid character is encountered (forbidden in either the encoding or the XML spec)</li> <li>the tree structure is not valid (for example, because of unescaped HTML tags)</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>Here is some information that I would consider useful though not crucial:</p> <ul> <li>Performance comparisons</li> <li>A list of available implementations</li> </ul> <p>I am currently considering any XML API on the JVM.</p> <ul> <li>It can be a Java standard (DOM, SAX, StAX, JAXP), or an implementation-specific API.</li> <li>It can be an API for any language on the JVM (Scala, Groovy, Jython, JRuby...) - just make sure that it adds something compared to the standard Java APIs.</li> </ul> <p>I believe that a good way to structure this thread would be to only have one API per answer.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
