The standard Scala XML library. Please file XML issues here, not at https://github.com/scala/bug/issues.

Since Scala 2.11, this library is a separate jar that can be omitted from Scala projects that do not use XML.

The decoupling works because the compiler desugars XML literals in Scala source code into a set of method calls. Alternative implementations of these calls are welcome! (The calls are unfortunately only defined by the [implementation](https://github.com/scala/scala/blob/2.11.x/src/compiler/scala/tools/nsc/ast/parser/SymbolicXMLBuilder.scala).)
The decoupling of scala-xml from the Scala compiler and standard library is possible because the compiler desugars XML literals in Scala source code into a set of method calls. Alternative implementations of these calls are welcome! (The calls are unfortunately only defined by the [implementation](https://github.com/scala/scala/blob/2.11.x/src/compiler/scala/tools/nsc/ast/parser/SymbolicXMLBuilder.scala).)

API documentation is available [here](https://scala.github.io/scala-xml/api/1.2.0/scala/xml/).

How to documentation is available in the [wiki](https://github.com/scala/scala-xml/wiki)

## Cross-building with 2.10

If you are cross-building a project that uses scala-xml with both Scala 2.10 and later Scala versions, take a look at [this example](https://github.com/scala/scala-module-dependency-sample).

## Maintenance status

This library is community-maintained. The lead maintainer is [@aaron_s_hawley](https://github.com/ashawley).
