What you should know

We assume that you are or will be familiar with the following:

• Advanced object-oriented programming in Java.
• The development tools commonly used by Java programmers.
• XML, including concepts such as well-formedness, DTDs, validation of documents, and so on. You should be familiar with the CML declaration, and the importance of saving XML files that are compliant with, for example, <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>

Most concepts needed to use TEXTML SDK are visible through the user interface of TEXTML Console. We strongly recommend that you skim the documentation aimed at TEXTML administrators, and experiment with TEXTML Console.
