Need to retrieve all the node values of xml using DOM parser..pls help

pls check the above xml file in proper redable order...I need to parse using DOM and fetch node values that are present...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Yep, the parse method of a SAXParser accepts a DefaultHandler.

Extend such a handler and when its 'character' method is called do

something with that character array (it contains the CDATA text of

your xml nodes).

kind regards,

Agreed, but the OP says he has to use DOM. Presumably the restriction applies because it is homework.

can someone provide me the code idea for that xml...as iam very new to this...

same xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Hallo, you ca try this peice of Code.

It will be help out you.

import org.w3c.dom.Document;

import org.w3c.dom.Node;

public class TreeTraversal {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception

{

// First get a document builder factory

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

// Now get a document builder

DocumentBuilder db = null;

try {

db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();

}

catch (ParserConfigurationException pce) {

pce.printStackTrace();

return;

}

// Call the parse method on DocumentBuilder. This returns an object

// of type Document

Document myDoc = db.parse(args[0]);

Now we just print the nodeType, nodeName and nodeValue of the

document node. Look at the JavaDoc for the Node interface and

you will see that for Document node:

name = "#document" (i.e., a fixed string)

value = null

process(myDoc, "\t");

}

Process all the child nodes of the Node object passed in. Processing means:

i) print out the nodeType, nodeName and nodeValue of a node

ii) call the process method with the node to process any children the node

has.

private static void process(Node node, String indent) {

Node c = null;

Go through each of the children one by one and call process. Note that

this code does a pre-order traversal of the tree.

You will also see that the parser considers new-lines to be Text content.

If you modify the file and remove new-line characters, you will see a

different output.

Use for loop to get out the data

for (c = node.getFirstChild(); c != null; c = c.getNextSibling()) {

printNode(c, indent);

process(c, indent + "\t");

}

}

To print the data in the console

private static void printNode(Node node, String indent){

System.out.println(indent

+ "node type = " + node.getNodeType()

+ ",\tname = " + node.getNodeName()

+ ",\tvalue = " + node.getNodeValue());

}

}

Best Regards

Maruthi
