Extensible Markup Language (XML)
Extensible Markup Language (XML) allows you to describe and organize
information in ways that are easily understandable by both humans and computers.
You can then share that information and its description with others over the
Internet, an extranet, network, or in other ways.
Note: The XML parsers for ILE C, C++, COBOL, and RPG that were introduced
and integrated into the operating system in V5R1 have been replaced by the
licensed program offering (LPO) XML Toolkit for iSeries™ (5733-XT1). Although service
programs QXML4C310 and QXML4PR310 still exist in library QSYS in releases
prior to V5R3M0, you are encouraged to use the newer parsers
provided by the
XML
Toolkit for iSeries LPO.
