Abstract: Resolving conflicting changes to structured data files. A method includes for a structured data file which has both a generic structure and dialects built on top of the generic structure, for which conflicting changes have been made, and where an original version of the structured data, a first version of the structured data and a second version of the structured data exist, determining a dialect of the structured data. The method further includes, based on the determined dialect performing at least one of merge or diff operations on the original version of the structured data, the first version of the structured data and the second version of the structured data.

Abstract: Various features enable an XML data stream to be parsed without the need to build a hierarchical tree structure for the XML document.

Abstract: Systems for parsing an XML data stream are described. In one embodiment, the system is configured to receive an XML data stream comprising one or more element tags and determine whether an element tag contains a namespace declaration. The system creates one or more namespace objects if an element tag contains one or more respective namespace declarations, each namespace object corresponding to one namespace declaration. The system associates namespace objects with one another if more than one namespace object is created and associates each namespace object with a dictionary that contains one or more entries that are associated with an element tag.
