  1. Introduction to XML Patryk Czarnik XML and Applications 2013/2014 Lecture 1 – 7.10.2013

  2. T ext markup – roots The term markup origins from hints in manuscript to be printed in press. And she went on planning to herself how she would manage it. 'They must go by the carrier,' Po polsku she thought; 'and how funny it'll znakowanie tekstu seem, sending presents to one's own feet! And how odd the directions will look! 10pt space ALICE'S RIGHT FOOT, ESQ. HEARTHRUG, NEAR THE FENDER, 0.5in (WITH ALICE'S LOVE). 10pt space Oh dear, what nonsense I'm talking!'. bold 2 / 42

  3. T ext markup – roots In fact people have marked up text since the beginning of writing. Marking up things in hand-written text: punctuation, indentation, spaces, underlines, capital letters. Structural documents: layout of letter – implicit meaning, tables, enumeration, lists. T oday informal markup used in computer-edited plain text: email, forum, blog (FB etc.), SMS, chat, instant messaging. 3 / 42

  4. T ext markup – fundamental distinction Presentational markup Semantic markup Describes the appearance of Describes the meaning (role) text fragment of a fragment font, color, indentation,... Examples: Procedural or structural LaT eX (partially) HTML tags: <STRONG> Examples: <Q> <CITE> <VAR> Postscript, PDF, T eX styles in word processors HTML tags: <B> <BR> (if used in that way) direct formatting in word most of SGML and XML processors applications XSL-FO (we will learn) 4 / 42

  5. Documents in information systems Since the introduction of computers to administration, companies and homes plenty of digital documents have been written (or generated). Serious problem: number of formats, incompatibility. De facto standards in some areas (e.g. .doc, .pdf, .tex) most of them proprietary many of them binary and hard to use some of them undocumented and closed for usage without a particular tool Let's design another format Let's design another format replacing all existing! replacing all existing! And now we have 1000+1 formats to handle... 5 / 42

  6. Why is XML a different approach? Common base document model SOAP syntax MathML Open technical support (parsers, Document libraries, supporting tools XHTML and standards) Different applications varying set of tags undetermined semantics Base to define formats competencies tools rather than one format standards libraries General and extensible! syntax 6 / 42

  7. A bit of history – overview Road to XML 1980 1990 1970 1960 2000 Context and alternative solutions 7 / 42

  8. Road to XML 1967–1970s – William T unnicliffe, GenCode Late 1960s – IBM – SCRIPT project, INTIME experiment Charles G oldfarb, Edward M osher, Raymond L orie G eneralized M arkup L anguage (GML) 1974–1986 – Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) ISO 8879:1986 Late 1990s – E x tensible M arkup L anguage (XML) W3C Recommendation 1998 Simplification(!) and subset of SGML 8 / 42

  9. What is XML? Standard – Extensible Markup Language World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Recommendation version 1.0 – 1998 version 1.1 – 2004 Language – a format for writing structural documents in text files Metalanguage – an extensible and growing family of concrete languages (XHTML, SVG, etc...) Means of: (two primary applications) document markup carrying data (for storage or transmission) 9 / 42

  10. What is XML not? Programming language Extension of HTML Means of presentation (for humans) Web-only, WebServices-only, database-only, nor any other _-only technology – XML is general. Golden hammer 10 / 42

  11. XML components Main logical structure Element ( element ) start tag ( znacznik otwierający ) end tag ( znacznik zamykający ) Attribute ( atrybut ) T ext content <article id="1850" subject="files"> <author>Jan Kowalski</author> / text node <title>File formats</title> <p> ( zawartość tekstowa <n>Open document</n> files may have / węzeł tekstowy ) the following extensions: </p> <list type="unordered"> <item>odt</item> <item>ods</item> <item>odd</item> <item>odp</item> <item>odb</item> </list> </article> 11 / 42

  12. XML components Comments and PIs <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css"?> <article id="1850" subject="files"> <author>Jan Kowalski</author> <?Categorisation technical informal ?> <title>File formats</title> <!-- <p>Commented content... --> </article> <!-- Modified: 2013-10-02T11:11:00 --> Comment ( komentarz ) Processing instruction ( instrukcja przetwarzania, ew. instrukcja sterująca, dyrektywa ) target ( cel, podmiot ) 12 / 42

  13. XML components – CDATA CDATA section ( sekcja CDATA ) Whole content treated as a text node, without any processing. Allows to quote whole XML documents (not containing further CDATA sections). <example> The same text fragment written in 3 ways: <option>x > 0 &amp; x &lt; 100</option> <option>x > 0 &#38; x &#60; 100</option> <option><![CDATA[x > 0 & x < 100]]></option> </example> 13 / 42

  14. Document prolog <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-2" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE article SYSTEM "article.dtd"> <article> ... </article> XML declaration Looks like a PI, but formally it is not. May be omitted. Default values of properties: version = 1.0 encoding = UTF-8 or UTF-16 (deducted algorithmically) standalone = no Document type declaration ( DTD ) Optional 14 / 42

  15. Unicode and character encoding Unicode – big table assigning characters to numbers. Some characters behave in a special way, e.g. U+02DB ˛ Ogonek One-byte encodings (ISO-8859, DOS/Windows, etc.) Usually map to Unicode, but not vice-versa Mixing characters from different sets not possible Unicode Transformation Formats: UTF-8 – variable-width encoding, one byte for characters 0-127 (consistent with ASCII), 16 bits for most of usable characters, up to 32 bits for the rest UTF-16 – variable-width, although 16 bits used for most usable characters; big-endian or little-endian UTF-32 – fixed-length even for codes > 0xFFFF 15 / 42

  16. XML components Character & entity references Character reference decimally: &#252; ( referencja do znaku ) Character reference hexadecimally: &#xFC; Relate to character numbers in Unicode table. Allow to insert any acceptable character even if out of current file encoding or hard to type from keyboard. Not available within element names etc. Entity reference : &lt; &MyEntity; ( referencja do encji ) Easy inserting of special characters. Repeating or parametrised content. Inserting content from external file or resource addressable by URL. 16 / 42

  17. Where do entities come from? 5 predefined entities: lt gt amp apos quot Custom entities defined in DTD simple (plain text) or complex (with XML elements) internal or external <!ELEMENT doc ANY> <!ENTITY lecture-id "102030"> We skip details of <!ENTITY title "XML and Applications"> unparsed entities <!ENTITY abstract SYSTEM "abstract.txt"> <!ENTITY lect1 SYSTEM "lecture1.xml"> and notations . <?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE doc SYSTEM "entities.dtd"> <p> XML is fine. </p> <doc> <p> A general parsed entity is well-formed <lecture id="&lecture-id;"> if it forms a well-formed XML document <title>&title;</title> when put between element tags. </p> <abstract>&abstract;</abstract> In particular, it may contain &lect1; text and any number of elements. </lecture> </doc> 17 / 42

  18. Document T ype Definition Defines structure of a class of XML documents (“XML application”). Optional and not very popular in new applications. Replaced by XML Schema or alternative standards. It is worth to know it, though. Important for many technologies created 10-30 years ago and still in use. Beside document structure definition , which we'll learn in the next week, it allows to define entities and notations. 18 / 42

  19. Associating DTD to XML document (3 options) Internal DTD External DTD <?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE doc [ <!DOCTYPE doc SYSTEM "entities.dtd"> <!ELEMENT doc ANY> <doc>... <!ENTITY title "XML and Apps"> ]> <doc>... <!ELEMENT doc ANY> <!ENTITY title "XML and Applications"> Mixed approach – internal part processed first and has precedence for some kinds of definitions (including entities) <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE doc SYSTEM "entities.dtd" [ <!ENTITY title "XML and Advanced Applications"> ]> <doc>... 19 / 42
