Robert H. Pollack commented on XMLBEANS-100:
--------------------------------------------
What works for me as a workaround is to copy the DOM tree created by XMLBeans
into a Document created by the JDK's DocumentBuilder. In other words, suppose
we have a Document that has been obtained by something like this:
Document doc1 = (Document) myXMLObject.newDomNode();
Create a DocumentBuilder in the usual way and use it to build a new Document:
DocumentBuilder builder =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc2 = builder.newDocument();
(you'll need exception handlers not shown here). Then import the first Document
into the second:
Element newRoot = (Element) doc2.importNode (doc1.getDocumentElement(),
true);
doc2.appendChild (newRoot);
Now do your work--transformations or whatever--with doc2, which will be a DOM
level 3 Document.
As I say, this is working fine for me; the JVM has no problem handling two
different DOM implementations, a level 2 implementation from XMLBeans and a
level 3 implementation from the JDK. And the JDK's implementation seems to have
no trouble importing nodes from XMLBeans' implementation. Admittedly, this
would not scale to large trees; I have no workaround to suggest when the tree
is so large that copying it is expensive.
If, afterward, you need to turn this back into an XmlObject, it should be
possible to do this by using XmlObject.Factory.parse (doc2), although I haven't
tested this since my application doesn't need it.
