Tag: parser

I've released a new, open-source Microformat parser for .NET, available on Codeplex! This stream-based parser uses a flexible XML configuration to define how microformats like hCard and rel-tag are extracted from HTML/XML, allowing for easy adaptation to spec changes. The provided C# code example demonstrates the simplicity of using the framework to read and process microformat data. Feedback and contributions are welcome!

I'm diving into the official CSS 2.1 specification to build a C# based token reader for CSS parsing. The document itself is quite dense, but it lays out the syntax and provides regular expressions to guide the implementation. This is going to be a challenging but interesting project.

A visitor searched Google for a "c# css parser" and landed on my site. Intrigued, I explored existing C# CSS parsers but found nothing. This sparked an idea for a personal project: creating my own parser. I envision distinct classes for each CSS type, managing their rules and attributes. A "Finder Class" would locate CSS classes and instantiate corresponding C# objects.

In my last post about Perl, I forgot to mention my upcoming need for XML processing. Before I start looking at XML parsers, I'd appreciate recommendations for a lightweight Perl XML parser. My requirements include: lightweight, XPath support (potentially), SAX-like reader functionality, DOM support, and the ability to create XML documents (preferably via DOM or similar methods). Email me your suggestions!
