Re: XML parser in Java

["David Morris" <David.Morris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ray,

I would recommend JDOM or possibly DOM4J. They 
greatly simplify the type of processing you describe. 
I recently wrote an article that describes using 
JDOM to support XML property documents. I have also 
written about XML validation quite a bit. You can 
read those article here:

To validate with JDOM, you create your parser 
like:

SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder(true);

That's all there is to it.

Hello all,

I'm a newbie to Java. I need some help in creating a class which can 
validate(against DTD), parse an XML file and load the data into a
physical 
file on AS/400.
Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Ray
