+ * Defines interfaces and classes for the Streaming API for XML (StAX). + * + *

+ * StAX provides two basic functions: the cursor API allowing users to + * read and write XML efficiently, and the event iterator API promoting + * ease of use that is event based, easy to extend and pipeline. + * The event iterator API is intended to layer on top of the cursor API. + * + *

+ * The cursor API defines two interfaces: {@link XMLStreamReader} + * and {@link XMLStreamWriter}, while the event iterator API defines: + * {@link XMLEventReader} and {@link XMLEventWriter}. + * + *

+ * StAX supports plugability with {@link XMLInputFactory} and + * {@link XMLOutputFactory} that define how an implementation is + * located through a process as described in the {@link newFactory} + * method. + * + * + * @since 1.6 + */ + +package javax.xml.stream;
