Topics
	JawsMako Library
	JawsMako encompasses an API that is intended to provide a simpler and more flexible interface than that provided by its predecessor, EDL. It allows for simplified access to supported input types, providing easy APIs for accessing document assemblies, documents and pages, and for performing common tasks. It also provides methods of managing the amount of memory used by JawsMako.
	Error handling
	EDL errors. Many of the EDL APIs return an (unsigned) integer result code where EDL_OK (0) indicates "success" and a non-zero value indicates an error of some kind. A look-up function is provided to convert these integer result codes into (localizable) strings (see EDL::getEDLErrorString())
	DOM Objects
	Class descriptions of DOM (Document Object Model) objects.
	Input/Output
	Classes concerned with reading input and writing output.

Detailed Description

The JawsMako API.

JawsMako encompasses an API that is intended to provide a simpler and more flexible interface than that provided by its predecessor, EDL. It allows for simplified access to supported input types, providing easy APIs for accessing document assemblies, documents and pages, and for performing common tasks. It also provides methods of managing the amount of memory used by JawsMako.

Errors are handled through exceptions of type JawsMako::IError which is currently a synonym for EDL::IEDLError.

This API will be extended in future JawsMako releases.
