XML proficiency question

I was asked this question...anyo ne have any insight? I am not really
sure what it is asking for. I know a little about XML, but i really
dont get this question. Any help would be appreciated.

Question:
Suppose you were working on a system that used a simple XML data
transfer protocol that relied on HTTP as it's transport layer and
provides two types of compression and encoding for that data. These
compression and encoding algorithms will be referred to as "CompA"
and "CompB" for this example. The current system has two objects
that provide these services as described below.

HttpTransportCo mpA - This object uses the "CompA" compression and
encoding algorithm and provides an HTTP transport layer for the data.
This object has a send(url, xml) method that takes an XML string to
compress via the "CompA" and transmit via http to the URL.

HttpTransportCo mpB - This object uses the "CompB" compression and
encoding algorithm and provides an HTTP transport layer for the data.
This object has a send(url, xml) method that takes an XML string to
compress via the "CompB" and transmit via http to the URL.

You are now required to add HTTPS in addition to HTTP transport to the
system while supporting both "CompA" and "CompB" for the XML
data.

Describe the resulting objects for the system.

I think it is intended to mean: Show me that you have enough grasp of
object-oriented analysis and design, as well as HTTP and HTTPS, to come
up with an object-oriented design, exteding upon the given one, that
supports HTTPS.

Enjoy ;)

Hi, Regret the fact that this post may be slightly OT to c.l.c, but I am sure that people there would give GREAT advice...

Being a grad student, I came along many programming languages like Assembly, C, C++, VHDL, Matlab, Perl etc. and I dont remember how I learned them. I am more comfortable with Assembly programming than others. The question is how do you measure proficiency in C and C++ ? It is important...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
