Ada would have let you use the same code for all of your implementations. A version of the GNU (GNAT) Ada compiler generates ECMA, which is used in .NET. Parenthetically, the ECMA compiler was based on the GNAT J code generator. Bob Leif

To get it in C# one would have to rewrite the entire thing (although help is available in the form om Java Language Conversion Assistant in Visual Studio). A C# FOP would preferrably use the pull architecture of the XMLReader in .NET, instead of the SAX Parser. NFOP is in J#, and while it may be worth using in a .NET environment, J# is still a strange animal. /G --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
