Hi Jim,

I thought about the Android Tutorial Article that I sent the group.  The 
Android 
VM can only execute Dalvic Executable bytecode.  In other words, the ROME, 
JDOM, 
and HttpClient jar files containing standard Java class files and standard Java 
bytecode would have to be dynamically converted into "dex", every time we 
invoke 
our application.  I think that this fact makes my suggestion an impossibility 
from a performance standpoint.  I don't think that we can use ROME and JDOM.

Best regards,
Harry Henriques
Java Developer

 Hi Harry,

If a resource is available in the Android OS, I don't see why one would import 
other resources to do the same thing.  Why do you suspect ROME will be cleaner 
without trying the other option?

Did you see this link at the end of the link you sent?  It's looks pretty 
relevant.

Hi Jim,

I think that I can do this using ROME, and that it will be a lot cleaner.  I'll 
give it a try.

Harry

 Hi Harry,
 
Looks like you're moving along with the RSS handling.  Here's a couple  of 
resources I found in my Firefox bookmarks which might be helpful in  
considering 
whether we can get along with Android resources and avoid have to  pull in 
other 
packages to our app.  There's also, I believe, a SAX parser  in the Android SDK 
though I haven't a pointer to that.
 
Cheers,
 
Jim
