CSCI A348/548
Lecture Notes Twenty-Six

Spring 2001 (Second semester 2000-2001)

Getting closer to finish the project.

First, if you are

your extra project is to This document explains how.

If you are an undergraduate and do this you can get a few more points this way.

Currently I don't know exactly how many.

Second, here's what we need: 

burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% pwd
/nfs/paca/home/user1/dgerman/xalan
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% ls -l
total 2710
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty    105573 Apr  5 12:01 bsf.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty     40836 Apr  5 12:01 servlet.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty     57679 Apr  5 12:01 stylebook-1.0-b3_xalan-2.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty    720930 Apr  5 12:01 xalan.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty    122396 Apr  5 12:01 xalan2jdoc.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty     38100 Apr  5 12:01 xalanj1compat.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty     18131 Apr  5 12:01 xalansamples.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty     21453 Apr  5 12:01 xalanservlet.jar
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty   1605266 Apr  5 12:01 xerces.jar
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu%
Make sure your CLASSPATH points to these .jar files.

Mine loks like this: 

burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% echo $CLASSPATH  /u/dgerman/xalan/bsf.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/stylebook-1.0-b3_xalan-2.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xalan.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xalan2jdoc.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xalanj1compat.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xalansamples.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xalanservlet.jar:/u/dgerman/xalan/xerces.jar:/l/JMF2.1/lib/jmf.jar:.:/u/dgerman/apache/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1/lib/servlet.jar
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu%
That's one long string, pointing to many .jar files.

Perhaps not all are needed.

What's in a .jar file?

Try jar xvf xalan.jar if you want to know.

We'll do that in class.

Now you also need the following sample code for the exercises: 

burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% pwd
/nfs/paca/home/user1/dgerman/XML
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% ls -ld *
-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty      3206 Apr 12 15:12 2ndContents.xml

-rw-r--r--   1 dgerman  faculty        39 Apr 12 15:10 copyright.txt
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu%
Let's do some parsing: 

burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% javac SAXParserDemo.java
burrowww.cs.indiana.edu% java SAXParserDemo contents.xml
