Simple API for XML
Simple API for XML (SAX)
About
SAX is the Simple API for XML, originally a Java-only API. SAX was
the first widely adopted API for XML in Java, and is a "de facto"
standard. The current version is SAX 2.0, and there are versions
for several programming language environments other than Java.
Copyright Status
SAX is free!
In fact, it's not possible to own a license to SAX, since it's
been placed in the public domain.
No Warranty
Because SAX is released to the public domain, there is no warranty
for the design or for the software implementation, to the extent
permitted by applicable law. Except when otherwise stated in
writing the copyright holders and/or other parties provide SAX "as
is" without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied,
including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. The entire
risk as to the quality and performance of SAX is with you. Should
SAX prove defective, you assume the cost of all necessary servicing,
repair or correction.
In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in
writing will any copyright holder, or any other party who may
modify and/or redistribute SAX, be liable to you for damages,
including any general, special, incidental or consequential
damages arising out of the use or inability to use SAX (including
but not limited to loss of data or data being rendered inaccurate
or losses sustained by you or third parties or a failure of the
SAX to operate with any other programs), even if such holder or
other party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
