As far as I am aware, there isn't one (in Java). It's on the roadmap for GNU JAXP - I've recently introduced an XPath engine which is a critical component - but it is a nontrivial amount of work and may take some time.

In ClasspathX this is not required, but GNU JAXP will probably become part of the Classpath project which does require copyright assignment. -- Chris Burdess
