lots a differnet ways you could do it... I would suggest creating 2
classes.
1. OrderCollection
2. Order
then get some Digester Rules like this....
Digester digester = new Digester();
OrderCollection ordercollection = new OrderCollection();
//lets push the instance of ordercollection before we parse anything
digester.push(ordercollection)
//now lets add some rules to the digester instance.
//when we come across an <order> tag lets create a new instance of the
order class
digester.addObjectCreate("/order", "Order", "ClassName");
//now that the order class is the top most class instance on the stack lets
match some order
//attributes to some methods on the order class..so for example, something
like this.
//we come across the <order><account> pattern lets call the setAccountID
method in our order class
digester.addCallMethod("/order/account", "setAccountID", 0); // 0 meaning
no additional params for this method
//same thing for symbol lets call a method to set that when we come across
it
digester.addCallMethod("/order/symbol/", "setSymbol", 0);
//then when we come across the </order> tag, lets pop the order class
instance and add that to the order collection class
//this will take the entire order instance, call a method on the order
collection and pass the order object as a param to that
//method
digester.addSetNext("/order", "addOrder");
//now lets parse the xml file and get an instance of the ordercollection we
pushed onto the stack
OrderCollection populatedcollection = (OrderCollection)digester.pars
("pathToXmlFile);
Hope that helps!
