Xerlin is a Java 2 platform open source XML editor distributed under an Apache-style license. This Java-based tool focuses on XML modeling, aiming to streamline the process of generating and modifying XML documents. The most recent release, version 1.3, became available in May 2005.

Project Details

The origins of Xerlin trace back to contributions made to the Merlot XML editor project, an open source effort initiated and hosted by ChannelPoint between 2000 and 2001. Xerlin expanded upon Merlot's groundwork and involved several developers from that initial team.

Compatible with any Java 2 virtual machine (requiring JDK 1.2.2 or newer), the application offers extensibility through customizable editor interfaces designed for specific DTDs. It provides validation capabilities for both DTDs and XML Schemas.
