Jaxen is an open source XPath library written in Java.
It is adaptable to many different object models, including
DOM, XOM, dom4j, and JDOM. Is it also possible to write
adapters that treat non-XML trees such as compiled Java byte code or Java beans
as XML, thus enabling you to query these trees with XPath too.

<p>
The current version is <strong>1.1.6</strong>:

Sun chose Jaxen for the XPath engine for the
<a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/standard-doc/intro.html"><acronym title="Java Server Pages">JSP</acronym>
Standard Tag Library (<acronym>JSTL</acronym>)</a> and the
<a href="http://java.sun.com/webservices/downloads/previous/webservicespack.jsp">Java Web Services Developer Pack 1.0 and 1.1</a>.

Since the reference implementation of
<a href="http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxm/index.jsp">Java API for XML Messaging</a>
is based on <a href="http://dom4j.org">dom4j</a> and Jaxen, that means you can use
Jaxen to query SOAP messages on the Java platform too!
