Saxon Resources

Documentation

This saxon-resources download contains a full copy of the Saxon API documentation:

The main Saxon documentation supplied in this resources download runs as an interactive application driven by Saxon-JS in the browser (a copy of Saxon-JS is included in the download). However, most browsers do not allow Saxon-JS to run from a local file system, so the documentation application may not work directly. It is recommended that the HTTP protocol is used to access the resource files, so it may be necessary to host the 'viewer_appJS' directory (which contains Saxon-JS and all required resources) on a localhost web-server.

Hosting the full 'saxon-resources9-9' directory on a localhost web-server, and once the source-userdoc.zip has been unzipped, use the following link, or the menu on the right, to go directly to the documentation:

Alternatively, full documentation for the current release is also available online (two versions are provided: the interactive application, and an alternative static HTML page version for non-Javascript browsers):

Sample applications and drivers

This resources download also contains sample applications and drivers for the W3C test suites. These are relevant for all Saxon editions (Saxon-HE, Saxon-PE and Saxon-EE), and both platforms (Java and .NET).
