How do I correctly parse an XMI file using jdom 2?

Question

I want to parse an XMI file using jdom2, but I can't seem to get information from it. Here's an example:

element.getAttributes()  -> [[Attribute: xsi:type="coremodel:Place"],[Attribute: id="p_InitialNode1"], [Attribute: OutArcs="out_InitialNode1"]]
element.getAttributeValue("id") -> p_InitialNode1
element.getAttributeValue("xsi:type") -> null

I don't understand why I have null, when I expected coremodel:Place.

What am I doing wrong?

I edited your question for clarity, and made the title a bit more descriptive so that those that can answer it are more likely to notice it. I also consolidated your tags a bit. Good luck! — Tim Post, Apr 09 '15 at 08:53

I found the solution it's just by declaring a new namespace for xsi

 Namespace namespace = Namespace.getNamespace("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");

and it works
