VTD-XML 2.3 is now released. To download the latest version please visit http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=110612&package_id=120172.

Below is a list of new features and enhancements in this version.

  a.. VTDException is now introduced as the root class for all other
VTD-XML's exception classes (per suggestion of Max Rahder).
  b.. Transcoding capability is now added for inter-document cut and paste.
You can cut a chuck of bytes in a UTF-8 encoded document and paste it into a
UTF-16 encoded document and the output document is still well-formed.
  c.. ISO-8859-10, ISO-8859-11, ISO-8859-12, ISO-8859-13, ISO-8859-14 and
ISO-8859-15 support has now been added
  d.. Zero length Text node is now possible.
  e.. Ability to dump in-memory copy of text is added.
  f.. Various code cleanup, enhancement and bug fixes.

Below are some new articles related to VTD-XML

  a.. Index XML documents with VTD-XML
http://xml.sys-con.com/read/453082.htm
  b.. Manipulate XML content the Ximple Way
http://www.devx.com/xml/Article/36379
  c.. VTD-XML: A new vision of XML
http://www.developer.com/xml/article.php/3714051
  d.. VTD-XML: XML Processing for the future
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/vtd-xml_examples.aspx

If you (or someone you know) like the concept of VTD-XML, think that it can help solve enterprises' XML processing related issues (particularly those related to SOA), and would like to directly influence and contribute to the development of the future of Internet, please email me crackeur@comcast.net). We are looking for open source software developers and project management people to take VTD-XML to the next level.

I'd love to see how this stacks up against tango.xml...

Or std.xml :-)

The latter is brand new, and doesn't yet cope with all the encodings, but encoding support is coming soon to Phobos too.

Just wait for the performance graphs.  I've seen them.  They're not pretty.

sorry for OT, but i cant understand the goals of those project. why they still have "xml" in name? tis is not xml. this is another binary data file format. it is throw away all advantages and features, that xml developers wanted implement (imho)
may be they should better write xml<->dbf converter and be happy with good old database format and performance with indexes

I don't think they're really mine to post.  There was a big "these are not done yet, please don't post them anywhere" notice above them, so..

(I know I'm sounding evasive now, but I'm being serious!)
