An easy way to read XML with java

To work with the XML document in Java, you have to create a document object in which you can load the XML file. To create the document object you have to use the classes.


DocumentBuilderFactory and the DocumentBuilder. The import statement at the top would contain,

import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.*;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;

which are mandatory.

Now, you can create DocumentBuilderFactory object and then use this object's newDocumentBuilder() method to create the DocumentBuilder object. With this DocumentBuilder object you can create a Document object that can be used to load the XML file that you want to use in your Java programming.

After you have loaded the XML document, you can create a node list by using the getElementByTagName() method of the document object. This would give an array and this can be stored in a NodeList object and then can be looped using "for" loop to print out the elements in the format you want.
