Free Xml Tool For Mac

Posted on  by 

Code Compare is a free tool designed to compare and merge differing files and folders. Code Compare integrates with all popular source control systems: TFS, SVN, Git, Mercurial, and Perforce. Code Compare is shipped both as a standalone file diff tool and an extension for Microsoft Visual Studio. XML UI Builder Tool is a developer command line tool for Windows operating system (Mac OS X version available too). It can be used to create user interfaces (.group files) in Mobile applications development with Airplay SDK, using xml user. XML to Excel Converter Convert raw XML data to Excel format (xls/xlsx) convert your XML data to Excel format using this free online tool to. Excel files can be opened directly by your favorite spreadsheet program and allows you to view the data in a convenient way, optimized for onscreen reading and printing.

XML Tools AppleScript Scripting Addition allows AppleScript to parse and generate XML data. XML Tools's parsing can generate a complete DOM-like structure or it.

  • Forget XML copy I have used it earlier and it does not provide long path names. When it comes to copying loads of file you need that feature. After searching a lot I found that GS RichCopy 360 provides that. It is simple to use and it uses multi threading file transfer to speed up the process. I would recommend it to you all.

  • This is good xml editor with validation. Some gui settings are difficult to find. Nevertheless, the main task of the app is done perfectly.

  • Good software

  • Did not verify all the details on the editor but I had a hard time finding how to change some settings. Some are in the options dailog soma (like the font size) are not. Also I could not change the color coding. As I want to use the tool for documenting I need to copy not only the text but also the formatting. The indentation is set to 1 space where the common is 4. This cannot be changed and makes the readability of the XML very hard. It could be a good tool but I gave it 3 stars for the not so user friendly interface.

Mac xml editor

I use XML Editor from XMLmind for editing/viewing XML file in Mac.

It's not bad, but I expect an XML editor for Mac. What options do I have including the commercial/free software?

Although it's still a beta I have found Xmplify to be a pretty useful XML aware tool. Copes with DTD, XSD, XPath and XSL transformation in the tool

Eclipse works on Mac OS and it is one of the best XML editor around, actually. It has XSD validation, autocompletion towards this schema. Also, it offers a graphical XSD designer.

And of course Emacs with psgml-mode or nxml-mode will edit XML.

Testing this and that, I settled down with Text Wrangler, with XML Tidy script. It's free and pretty useful for my purposes.

If you have the Apple Developer Tools installed, then you have XCode and this includes the Property List Editor app (Apple preference plist files are often in XML format, hence the app name).

You can find the app here: /Developer/Applications/Utilities/Property List Editor.app

IntelliJ IDEA is overall a good IDE, it's available on Mac, and it supports editing XML in ways such as syntax highlighting, collapsing a given scope, and validating XML. I haven't used it much for XML, but I've had good experiences with that IDE for other purposes so thought I would mention it here.

TextMate.

You can download the source code from GitHub and compile it locally. Then in the preferences install the appropriate language bundle. https://github.com/textmate/textmate

If you like the application I would recommend buying the commercial version to show your support to the author.

I always believe that an open source is the best and simple solutions. You can try BlueFish, or Brackets, I strongly advise you to try it, you won't lose anything.

I'm looking for the same thing, and I just came across XMLmind XML Editor. I like how it can load my files pretty quickly.

@rds: I've tried using Eclipse to open my XML files, but it would hang with my files (>15MB). I've come to notice any editor built with Java hangs upon trying to open my file, or at least takes an unbearably long time to load it.

As an alternative to XMLmind XML Editor there's QXmlEdit It is also free and quite feature rich. It's written in Qt and runs on Mac as well as the other platforms Qt supports.

You can try all in one JSON viewer or all in one XML viewer.
