Altova RaptorXML Server 2025

The Java code listing below shows how basic functionality can be accessed. It is structured into the following parts:

•Locate the examples folder, and create a RaptorXML COM object instance

•Validate an XML file

•Perform an XSLT transformation, return the result as a string

•Process an XQuery document, return the result as a string

•Run the project

This basic functionality is included in the files in the examples/API folder of the RaptorXML Server application folder.

// (will be two levels higher from examples/API/Java)

// REMARK: You might need to modify this path
