The Tamino API for Java offers an object-oriented programming interface to the Tamino XML Server. You can use it to write client applications that access and manipulate data stored in Tamino databases. As such it performs the same task as the HTTP Client API for Java, but does so in a more flexible way and is not restricted to a specific object model. You can use the Tamino API for Java with Tamino XML Server, Version 4.1.1.4 and later.
The Tamino API for Java:
supports different models for accessing data in Tamino (DOM, JDOM, SAX, and stream);
supports standards JAXP and DOM2;
supports local and global (XA) transactions;
introduces well-defined exception handling with localization support;
hides the native interface and communication logic of the Tamino XML Server
The following section introduces you to the individual components of the Tamino API for Java. We then present a simple "Hello World" example with which you can become acquainted with programming the Tamino API for Java.
