NSXMLParser is a class of the Foundation Framework of Mac OSX developer library. This class allows developers to parse XML documents (including DTD declarations) in an event-driven manner. An NSXMLParser notifies its delegate about the items (elements, attributes, CDATA blocks, comments, and so on) that it encounters as it processes an XML document. It does not itself do anything with those parsed items except report them. It also reports parsing errors.

API documentation available at http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSXMLParser_Class/Reference/Reference.html
