Q: SW for parsing DTD's

[Stefan Mintert]

Hi!

For the project I'm currently working on, I need to parse DTD's and query
information like this:

- which elements are valid in a given context?
- which elements can contain an element of a certain type?



Now I'm looking for software that does the parsing for me (Java classe are
preferred) and provides a high-level interface.
The best I've found is IBM's "XML for Java". Everything I need is in the
class com.ibm.xml.parser.DTD. But unfortunately the license agreement ends 90
days after downloading :-(

Since I'm writing a program for my thesis it must run for more than 90 days
;-)


Do you know of any software that has similar functions as XML4J and that is
free for unlimited (non-profit) use?

Thanks.


Bye,

  Stefan.

PS: I've already checked the docs of Ælfred and XP, but that isn't exactly
what I'm looking for. XP looks fine if I use the low-level interface and
build on top of it; but that's still some work to do...
