The Show Goes On... Folks, we'll be in the
middle of XML DevCon by
the time you get this
issue. It's strange to
describe an event that
hasn't happened yet,
knowing that your writing
will be available as the
event is actually taking
place. XML DevCon is... Jun. 15, 2000 Reads: 7,812 |
Extensibility or
Fragmentation In my last column (XML-J,
Vol. 1, issue 1) I talked
about XML's extensibility
and how it's the key to
building dynamic systems.

freedom to extend a data
structure create new
opportunities, or is ... Jun. 15, 2000 Reads: 7,922 |

XML-RPCs and Java Computer paradigms are
cyclical - they come,
go...and come back
around. Remote procedure
calls (RPCs) are one such
paradigm. This month's

Internet using XML-RPCs
and RMI. Jun. 15, 2000 Reads: 9,400 |

XML for C++ Developers To newcomers to the XML
world, it might seem as
if XML and Java are
somehow connected at the
hip. There are certainly
synergies between the two
technologies, largely
because they've come of
age at the same time.
Consequently, many o... Jun. 15, 2000 Reads: 9,611 |

Integration A few years back, when I
was at Singapore Telecom,
I remember being asked
why I was so excited
about Java. My answer was
that it's cross-platform.
In return I got a
