Help in understanding requiremwnts

Hi,

My company has a lot of binary files. I would like to display each file in
human readable format; preferably a browser.

Can this be done with Xerces?

If not, what is the best way to do this?

Ray

xerces works with text based xml files, which would mean that it wouldn't play the major part in your solution. It is theoretically possible that you massage the binary files into some xml based format, and then xerces would be used as a small part of the solution, but you are probably barking up the wrong tree.

You would have to know the specifics about the binary format, to be of any help. But in the end, the answer to your problems probably won't come from this list.
