EDXL Sharp is a C# / .NET 3.5 implementation of the OASIS Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) family of standards. The purpose of these libraries is to allow developers to:

  • Parse EDXL Messages from a string or underlying stream
  • Programmatically create EDXL messages
  • Validate EDXL Messages to the schema
  • Validate that EDXL Messages conform to the additional business rules specified in the standards documentation
  • Write EDXL messages to a string or underlying stream
