XML has now become a universal data exchange format. Its platform independence, language independence and system independence bring great convenience to data integration and interaction. For the grammatical knowledge and technical details of XML itself, you need to read relevant technical literature, which includes DOM (Document Object Model), DTD (Document Type Definition), SAX (Simple API for XML), XSD (Xml Schema Definition) ), XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations), for details, please refer to the w3c official website document http://www.w3.org for more information.
XML is parsed in the same way in different languages, but the syntax implemented is different. There are two basic parsing methods, one is called SAX and the other is called DOM. SAX is based on event stream parsing, and DOM is based on XML document tree structure parsing. Assume that the content and structure of our XML are as follows:
Copy the code code as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<employees>
<employee>
<name>ddviplinux</name>
<sex>m</sex>
<age>30</age>
</employee>
</employees>
This article uses JAVA language to implement XML document generation and parsing of DOM and SAX.
First define an interface for operating XML documents, XmlDocument. It defines the interface for creating and parsing XML documents.
Copy the code code as follows:
package com.alisoft.facepay.framework.bean;
/**
*
* @author hongliang.dinghl
* Define the interface for creating and parsing XML documents
*/
public interface XmlDocument {
/**
* Create XML document
* @param fileName Full path name of file
*/
public void createXml(String fileName);
/**
* Parse XML documents
* @param fileName Full path name of file
*/
public void parserXml(String fileName);
}
1.DOM generates and parses XML documents
A set of interfaces are defined for the parsed version of an XML document. The parser reads in the entire document and builds a memory-resident tree structure that code can then manipulate using the DOM interface. Advantages: The entire document tree is in memory, easy to operate; supports multiple functions such as deletion, modification, and rearrangement; Disadvantages: Transferring the entire document into memory (including useless nodes) wastes time and space; Usage occasions: Once parsed Documents also need to access this data multiple times; hardware resources are sufficient (memory, CPU).

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

2.SAX generates and parses XML documents
To solve the problem of DOM, SAX appeared. SAX, event driven. When the parser finds the beginning of an element, the end of an element, the beginning or end of text, a document, etc., it sends events, and programmers write code that responds to these events and saves the data. Advantages: There is no need to load the entire document in advance, and it takes up less resources; the SAX parser code is smaller than the DOM parser code, and is suitable for Applet and download. Disadvantages: not persistent; after the event, if the data is not saved, the data is lost; stateless; only text can be obtained from the event, but it is not known which element the text belongs to; Usage occasions: Applet; only XML document Small amount of content, seldom revisited; little machine memory;

3.DOM4J generates and parses XML documents
DOM4J is a very, very excellent Java XML API with excellent performance, powerful functions and extreme ease of use. It is also an open source software. Nowadays, you can see that more and more Java software is using DOM4J to read and write XML. It is particularly worth mentioning that even Sun's JAXM is also using DOM4J.
Java code
Copy the code code as follows:
package com.alisoft.facepay.framework.bean;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.Writer;
import java.util.Iterator;
import org.dom4j.Document;

import org.dom4j.DocumentHelper;
import org.dom4j.Element;

*/
public class Dom4jDemo implements XmlDocument {
public void createXml(String fileName) {

Element employee=employees.addElement("employee");
Element name= employee.addElement("name");
name.setText("ddvip");
Element sex=employee.addElement("sex");
sex.setText("m");

try {

xmlWriter.write(document);
xmlWriter.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}

try {
Document document = saxReader.read(inputXml);

for(Iterator i = employees.elementIterator(); i.hasNext();){
Element employee = (Element) i.next();
for(Iterator j = employee.elementIterator(); j.hasNext();){
Element node=(Element) j.next();
System.out.println(node.getName()+":"+node.getText());
}
}
} catch (DocumentException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
System.out.println("dom4j parserXml");
}
}
4.JDOM generates and parses XML
In order to reduce the amount of coding for DOM and SAX, JDOM appeared; advantages: the 20-80 principle greatly reduces the amount of code. Usage occasions: The functions to be implemented are simple, such as parsing, creation, etc., but at the bottom level, JDOM still uses SAX (most commonly used), DOM, and Xanan documents.
Copy the code code as follows:
package com.alisoft.facepay.framework.bean;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
import org.jdom.Document;
import org.jdom.Element;
import org.jdom.JDOMException;
import org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder;
import org.jdom.output.XMLOutputter;
/**
*

*
*/
public class JDomDemo implements XmlDocument {
public void createXml(String fileName) {
Document document;
Element root;
root=new Element("employees");
document=new Document(root);
Element employee=new Element("employee");

employee.addContent(name);

sex.setText("m");
employee.addContent(sex);

age.setText("23");
employee.addContent(age);
XMLOutputter XMLOut = new XMLOutputter();
try {
XMLOut.output(document, new FileOutputStream(fileName));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void parserXml(String fileName) {
SAXBuilder builder=new SAXBuilder(false);
try {
Document document=builder.build(fileName);
Element employees=document.getRootElement();
List employeeList=employees.getChildren("employee");
for(int i=0;iElement employee=(Element)employeeList.get(i);
List employeeInfo=employee.getChildren();
for(int j=0;jSystem.out.println(((Element)employeeInfo.get(j)).getName()+":"+((Element)employeeInfo.get(j)).getValue());
}
}
} catch (JDOMException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
