Altova RaptorXML Server 2025

RaptorXML provides the functionality listed below. Most functionality is common to command line usage and COM interface usage. One major difference is that COM interface usage on Windows allows documents to be constructed from text strings via the application or scripting code (instead of referencing XML, DTD, XML Schema, XSLT, or XQuery files).

 

XML Validation

 

Validates the supplied XML document against internal or external DTDs or XML Schemas

Checks well-formedness of XML, DTD, XML Schema, XSLT, and XQuery documents

 

XSLT Transformations

 

Transforms XML using supplied XSLT 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0 document

XML and XSLT documents can be provided as a file (via a URL) or, in the case of COM usage, as a text string

Output is returned as a file (at a named location) or, in the case of COM usage, as a text string

XSLT parameters can be supplied via the command line and via the COM interface

Altova extension functions, as well as XBRL, Java and .NET extension functions, enable specialized processing. This allows, for example, the creation of such features as charts and barcode in output documents

 

XQuery Execution

 

Executes XQuery 1.0 and 3.0 documents

XQuery and XML documents can be provided as a file (via a URL) or, in the case of COM usage, as a text string

Output is returned as a file (at a named location) or, in the case of COM usage, as a text string

External XQuery variables can be supplied via the command line and via the COM interface

Serialization options include: output encoding, output method (that is, whether the output is XML, XHTML, HTML, or text), omitting the XML declaration, and indentation

 

JSON and Avro Validation/Conversion

 

Validation of JSON schema and Avro schema documents

Validation of JSON instances against JSON schemas and Avro schemas

Validation of Avro binaries

Conversion of Avro binaries to Avro schema and Avro data in JSON format

Conversion of Avro JSON data to Avro binary
