tapestry-sax-parser replaces the template parser of Tapestry 5.1 with a SAX template parser.

This enables easier use with application servers and the use of Tapestry on Google App Engine (GAE).

Howto use Tapestry without the StAX parser

First, checkout and build tapestry-sax-parser (you will need Git and Maven):

1. Checkout: git clone git://github.com/derkoe/tapestry-sax-parser.git
2. Build: mvn clean install

Then, you’ll have the current version of tapestry-sax-parser in your local Maven repository.

Next, replace the dependency to tapestry-core with tapestry-sax-parser. Use this:

	<groupId>org.apache.tapestry</groupId>
	<artifactId>tapestry-sax-parser</artifactId>
	<version>5.1.0.5</version>

Instead of:

	<groupId>org.apache.tapestry</groupId>
	<artifactId>tapestry-core</artifactId>
	<version>5.1.0.5</version>

Voila, you have Tapestry running without the need of a StAX parser.
