Fabio,

I encountered the same problem, if not similar to what you are describing. I submitted my question to this group but did not receive a reply.

My next step is to use Xpath. I had been busy on other tasks, but plan to tackle Xpath today. I am new to Xpath, so we'll see how far I get.

This is what I had posted:

I have this xml file that I need to access the Text "Dish." I have listed what semi works and does not work. Please see attached file.

<From>MotherCat</From>

<Where>

</Where>

<Get Name="Tom">WHITE</Get>

<Get Name="Jerry">BLACK</Get>

</InputValue>

descendant_2 = Where

secondDescendant_1 = On

descendant_3 = Get

attributeValue = Name

With this syntax, I am able to get at Dish, but that is because an attribute is not associated with

the element On.

String secondDescendant1Data = subParentElement.getChild(descendant_2).getChildText(secondDescendant_1);

System.out.print("\n secondDescendant1 Text: " + secondDescendant1Data);// child's descendant2 Where Dish

I get WHITE with this, but I do not have a way of getting to the next element BLACK.

//String secondDescendant3Data = subParentElement.getChild(descendant_3).getValue();//This works!

I get Tom with this syntax;

//String secondDescendant3Data = subParentElement.getChild(descendant_3).getAttribute(attributeValue).getValue();

With this syntax I get the actual attribute: Name;

//String secondDescendant3Data = subParentElement.getChild(descendant_3).getAttribute(attributeValue).getName();//Name

I need syntax like this;

//String secondDescendant3Data = subParentElement.getChild(descendant_3).getAttributeValue(attributeValue).getText(of Tom);

But there isnt an API method that works!

Might you be able to suggest a solution?

Subject: [jdom-interest] using JDOM 1.1 on Android's Dalvik VM

To: jdom-interest@...

I'm trying to use JDOM 1.1 on the Android 1.0 platform.

The Android platform supports most Java 5 API's. However, java.rmi.*

classes are not part of the Android platform.

When I use JDOM 1.1 on Android, I see this error:

W/dalvikvm( 327): VFY: unable to resolve check-cast 98

(Ljava/rmi/RemoteException;) in Lorg/jdom/JDOMException;

W/dalvikvm( 327): VFY: rejecting opcode 0x1f at 0x003d

W/dalvikvm( 327): VFY: rejected

Lorg/jdom/JDOMException;.getNestedException

(Ljava/lang/Throwable;)Ljava/lang/Throwable;

W/dalvikvm( 327): Verifier rejected class Lorg/jdom/JDOMException;

D/AndroidRuntime( 327): Shutting down VM

W/dalvikvm( 327): threadid=3: thread exiting with uncaught exception

(group=0x40010e28)

E/AndroidRuntime( 327): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to

uncaught exception

E/AndroidRuntime( 327): java.lang.VerifyError: org.jdom.JDOMException

I looked at the JDOM source code and noticed that org.jdom.JDOMException

uses java.rmi.RemoteException:

if (parent instanceof RemoteException) {

return ((RemoteException)parent).detail;

}

In order for this code to run on Android, we would need to eliminate

java.rmi.RemoteException from JDOMException.java

One possible fix (?) is to use reflection to retrieve the "detail" field:

if (parent.getClass().getName().startsWith("java.rmi.")) {

try {

Field f = parent.getClass().getField("detail");

return (Throwable) f.get(parent);

} catch (Exception ignore) {

// ignored

}

Using 'startsWith' is a hack. The intent is to detect

java.rmi.RemoteException as well as all

subclasses of java.rmi.RemoteException from the java.rmi pacakge.

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/rmi/RemoteException.html

Is there a better way to code this? Any other comments?

Sean

Hy everybody...

I'm trying to manipulate a XMI file with Jdom, and I have experienced some

difficulties doing it.

For example:

All the subnodes of the root Element have the "same name", but have

different attributes.

How can I choose a specific "Element", by specifying it's attributes?

Another point is that the attributes started with "xmi:" aren't recognized

by Jdom. I've already tested a bunch of things to make it recognizable, but

all of them were unsuccessful. =/

I think that my problems are quite easy to solve, but I haven't found

anything that could help me in the web.

If Jdom isn't a great tool with XMI, could you suggest me other?

*Xmi file that i want to read:

It's a good idea to show the code you were using, then people can tell you

where you went wrong.

It looks a bit as if you haven't grasped how namespaces work, but without

seeing your attempts, that's a guess.

Please don't go off-list. When people search the archives, they want to find

the answers, not only the questions!

Use Element.getChild(name, namespace)

> How could I get its child attributes without using

> myElement.getAttributes() and iterating over it?

Use Element.getAttribute(name, namespace)
