Package overview for net.sf.saxon.dotnet




This package provides classes that interface Saxon to the .NET platform.

These classes are used only in the .NET version of Saxon; they are not present
in the version for the Java platform.

Most of these class encapsulate a .NET class in a wrapper that implements a Java interface:
either an interface defined in the JDK specifications, or a Saxon-defined interface.
For example, DotNetInputStream wraps a .NET Stream as a Java InputStream, while a DotNetPullProvider
wraps an XMLReader as a Saxon PullProvider. This enables the .NET service to be used
as a functional substitute for Java code implementing the same interface.

The instantiation of these classes is generally controlled through the Platform object
registered with the Configuration, which has one instance for the Java platform and another
for the .NET platform.
