# SAX 2.0/Java

> This document is in the Public Domain.

SAX2 is a new Java-based release of SAX, the Simple API for XML. A C++ version (at least) is planned as well. SAX2 introduces configurable features and properties and adds support for XML Namespaces; it includes adapters so that SAX1 parsers and applications can interoperate with SAX2.
