The Infoset Pipeline begins
- An XML Parser builds an Infoset from a character stream
- A
streaming parser gives only a limited view of it
- A validating parser builds a richer Infoset than a non-validating one
- Defaulted values
- Whitespace normalisation
- Ignorable
whitespace
- If a document isn’t well-formed or isn’t Namespace-conformant
- It
doesn’t have an Infoset!
