WDDX:  Web Distributed Data Exchange, or WDDX, is a free, open XML-based technology that allows Web applications created with any platform to easily exchange data with one another over the Web.

For more info, See http://www.openwddx.org/ .

Are there any WDDX-parsers for TCL?

Example packet #1:
  <wddxPacket version='1.0'>
    <header comment='Example WDDX packet' />
    <data>
      <string>This is WDDX packet example</string>
    </data>
  </wddxPacket>

Example packet #2:
  <wddxPacket version='1.0'>
    <header comment='Another example' />
    <data>
      <struct>
        <var name='pi'>
          <number>3.1415926</number>
        </var>
        <var name='cities'>
          <array length='3'>
            <string>Austin</string>
            <string>Novato</string>
            <string>Seattle</string>
          </array>
        </var>
      </struct>
    </data>
  </wddxPacket>

[LV] Based on this example,WDDX appears to be a specific application of [XML].
There are a couple of XML extensions for Tcl - [tdom] and [tclxml] at the
very least.

I'm uncertain what one would need to use with either of these to be
considered a ''WDDX'' parser.

[schlenk] 2005-10-06 Based on the description of WDDX it seems like a serialization protocol for application data. As Tcl does not really have most of the types of for example Java or C one would have to create a mapping from WDDX to Tcl Data structures, probably something like [struct]::[record] or one of the OO packages. With [tdom] and some XPath expression it should be quite straightforward to do once you decide on a mapping.
