How to create a XML object from String in Java?

问题

I am trying to write a code that helps me to create a XML object. For example, I will give a string as input to a function and it will return me a XMLObject.

XMLObject convertToXML(String s) {}

When I was searching on the net, generally I saw examples about creating XML documents. So all the things I saw about creating an XML and write on to a file and create the file. But I have done something like that:

Document document = new Document();
Element child = new Element("snmp");
child.addContent(new Element("snmpType").setText("snmpget"));
child.addContent(new Element("IpAdress").setText("127.0.0.1"));
child.addContent(new Element("OID").setText("1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0"));
document.setContent(child);

Do you think it is enough to create an XML object? and also can you please help me how to get data from XML? For example, how can I get the IpAdressfrom that XML?

Thank you all a lot

EDIT 1: Actually now I thought that maybe it would be much easier for me to have a file like base.xml, I will write all basic things into that for example:

<snmp>
<snmpType><snmpType>
<OID></OID>
</snmp>

and then use this file to create a XML object. What do you think about that?

回答1:

If you can create a string xml you can easily transform it to the xml document object e.g. -

String xmlString = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><a><b></b><c></c></a>";  

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();  
DocumentBuilder builder;  
try {  
    builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();  
    Document document = builder.parse(new InputSource(new StringReader(xmlString)));  
} catch (Exception e) {  
    e.printStackTrace();  
}

You can use the document object and xml parsing libraries or xpath to get back the ip address.

try something like

public static Document loadXML(String xml) throws Exception
{
   DocumentBuilderFactory fctr = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
   DocumentBuilder bldr = fctr.newDocumentBuilder();
   InputSource insrc = new InputSource(new StringReader(xml));
   return bldr.parse(insrc);
}
