Message domains and parsers
WebSphere® Message Broker supplies a range of parsers to parse and write messages in different formats.
A parser is called when the bit stream that represents an input message must be converted to the format that is used internally by the broker; this process is known as parsing. For more information about the logical message tree structure created by parsing a message, see Logical tree structure.
A serializer is called when a logical tree structure must be converted into a bit stream; this process is known as serializing.
Each parser is suited to a particular class of messages, known
as a message domain. The following list contains some examples of
the message domains used in WebSphere Message
Broker:
- XMLNSC – for XML documents
- DFDL – for general text or binary data streams including industry standards
- JSON – for JSON documents
- DataObject – for data without a stream representation
