Thanks to all who replied to my e-mail.

The approach I have decided upon is to try two implementations:

1. XSLT

2. StAX

XSLT is really the simplest but my bosses might not like the memory requirements so StAX would a good alternative

The URL provided by Brennan is excellent on StAX: http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.6/tutorial/doc/SJSXP2.html

Hi

I have a particular problem to solve:

I have an xml batch file that contains individual xml invoices. I need to extract these xml invoices one at a time and
place them on a message queue i.e. I just need to get all the data between the invoice start and end tags put it
in a string and place it on a message queue (validation occurs on the invoice itself on the receiver side).

What is likely to be my best approach, DOM (unlikely I guess), SAX, StAX or simply writing a java program using indexOf, in terms of performance ?


TIA Peter
