PXP Reference

PXP is an XML parser for O'Caml. It represents the parsed document either as tree or as stream of events. In tree mode, it is possible to validate the XML document against a DTD.

The acronym PXP means Polymorphic XML Parser. This name reflects the ability to create XML trees with polymorphic type parameters.
