JAXP
Java API for XML Processing. It is both an API specification from Sun and an implementation GNU opensource library for dealing with XML in Java.

Starting with JDK 1.5, JAXP is built-in to the JDK. It provides SAX-style (Simple API for XML) element-by-element parsing and XSLT-style (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) transformations. DOM-style (Document Object Model) processing reads the entire XML file into RAM and converts it to a tree. It also includes Xerces. It lets you work with W3C XSD schemas.

Handled by the javax.xml.* tree of packages using the bundled Xerces implementation in the com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.* package tree.
