4DOM

Link: http://FourThought.com/4Suite/4DOM
Date: Sept. 5, 1999
Source: FourThought LLC

4DOM was designed to provide Python developers with a tool that could help them rapidly design applications for reading, writing, or otherwise manipulating HTML and XML documents.

The 4DOM processor provides a close implementation of the W3C's Core Level 1 DOM recommendation, and the HTML Level 1 DOM, as well as the Node Iterator and Node Filter functions from the DOM Level 2 Working Draft, and a few utility and helper components.

Some changes and improvements that were made to this version of 4DOM include: support for non-CORBA objects, general overall improved performance, DOM Level 2 NodeFilters and NodeIterators, Pythonic interface for NodeLists and NamedNodeMaps, XML Namespace support (which is still somewhat proprietary until W3C completes its Level 2 DOM interfaces), a re-organized module structure, explicit garbage-collection method, and many other bug-fixes.

4DOM can work in a CORBA enviroment (direct support for ILU and Fnorb have been added), or using a locally-stored, non-web-based object architecture.

4DOM is distributed under a license similar to that of Python.
