Overview

The XLIFF-2 Filter is an Okapi component that implements the IFilter interface for XLIFF 2.x (XML Localisation Interchange File Format) documents.

XLIFF v2 is an OASIS Standard that defines a file format for transporting translatable text and localization-related information across a chain of translation and localization tools.

The XLIFF 2.0 specification is at http://docs.oasis-open.org/xliff/xliff-core/v2.0/xliff-core-v2.0.html.
