Partial parsing

Fri, 26 Aug 2005 10:09:50 -0700

I want to use JAXME to partially parse messages.  I need to parse the outer two levels of some large and varied messages so that I can route them internally.  Once routed, the legacy system needs a DOM, so I neither care to define the XSD for all the various and sundry bodies, nor do I need the parsed data.  Is there a way of parsing the selected elements/attributes towards the root, and then dump the internals into a String variable.  

 

As an example I’d like:

 

<myroot session=”s1”>

            <body/>

</myroot>

 

<myroot session=”s2”>

            <body><a><a><a><a></a></a></a></a><a><a></a></a></body>

</myroot>

 

To parse into objects like:

 

Myroot.session = “s1”

Myroot.body = “” (or null)

 

And,

 

Myroot.session = “s2”

Myroot.body = “<a><a><a><a></a></a></a></a><a><a></a></a>”

 

Respectively.

 

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Neil
