Currently writing a XML parser as part of a feed aggerator.
It’s the first sort of project that I’ve done in a while just for myself. So I’ve got free choice of what language to use and how to design it. So first off all I went with a tree to represent a XML document so if I’m using a tree I’ll be using Java for the automatic memory allocation. Java however is not perfect for this. I’m missing using regular expressions (I know that they are burried in Java somewhere, but I can’t be bothered digging) so I thought that Perl would be good as a front end as a lexical anaylser, I hear good things about it’s String manipulation. However I don’t know any Perl so I’m just sticking it out in Java for now.
I’ll upload stuff when it’s done, if I ever finish, I have a habit of just stopping stuff halfway through. Let’s just say I’ll do it tomorrow…
