Provided with an XML instance specification (XML Schema), XSD/e generates validating C++ parser skeletons for data types defined in your vocabulary. You can then implement these parser skeletons to build your own in-memory representation or perform immediate processing as parts of your XML document become available.

Compared to general-purpose validating XML parsers, the XSD/e-generated parsers are 2-10 times faster while maintaining the lowest static and dynamic memory footprints. For example, a validating parser executable can be as small as 120KB in size. XSD/e is also highly-portable and can be used without STL, RTTI, iostream, C++ exceptions, and C++ templates.

Supported embedded toolchains include GNU g++ 2.95.x-4.x.x, eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0, and Visual Studio 2005 with Smart Devices support. Precompiled binary distributions are available for GNU/Linux, Solaris, and Windows host development platforms.
