OmniMark version 9.0.0

OmniMark 9 extends the streaming model to include streaming markup processing. Just as you can use string source and string sink to stream character data through a series of text filters, you can now use markup source and markup sink to stream parsed markup data through a series of markup filters, with no intermediate buffering.

The introduction of markup sink and markup source types enables OmniMark 9 to separate the parsing of XML or SGML from its subsequent processing. Once parsed and freed of its concrete representation, the content can be processed in a myriad of ways: it can be silently suppressed without triggering any markup rules, processed by multiple rule groups in parallel, or buffered to be used later. The content processing pipeline can thus be divided into modular, reusable components.

The new language features open possibilities for libraries. 9.0.0 also introduces OMRELAXNG, a new library module, so that programmers can easily validate input against a RELAX NG schema. The OMMARKUPUTILITIES library has also been added, containing new functionality for processing markup streams.

The new OMUNICODE library provides easy access to Unicode character properties, and the new OMURI library provides the ability to validate and manipulate URI strings.

Oracle support has been extended to include Oracle 11g on Solaris 10 and on Windows.

OmniMark Studio for Eclipse now requires Eclipse version 3.4.
