I am currently trying to create an XML document in JAVA using DOM parser. I'm using another answer that was posted in another question and it has helped me a lot however that answer doesn't go into enough detail to help me with a couple of the cases that I have. Let me begin by showing how I have been declaring my XML file thus far:
package creatingXML;
import java.io.File;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerException;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
public class CreateXML
{
public static void main(String args[]){
try{
DocumentBuilderFactory docFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = docBuilder.newDocument();
Element rootElement = doc.createElement("Document");
doc.appendChild(rootElement);
Element BkToCstmrDbtCdtNtfctn = doc.createElement("BkToCstmrDbtCdNtfctn");
rootElement.appendChild(BkToCstmrDbtCdtNtfctn);
Element GrpHdr = doc.createElement("GrpHdr");
BkToCstmrDbtCdtNtfctn.appendChild(GrpHdr);
Element MsgId = doc.createElement("MsgId");
GrpHdr.appendChild(MsgId);
MsgId.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("0000000")); //MSG ID WILL GO HERE
Element CreDtTm = doc.createElement("CreDtTm");
GrpHdr.appendChild(CreDtTm);
CreDtTm.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("2016-03-31T02:51:44")); //CREDIT DATE TIME WILL GO HERE
//MsgRcpt Tree
Element MsgRcpt = doc.createElement("MsgRcpt");
GrpHdr.appendChild(MsgRcpt);
Element Id = doc.createElement("Id");
MsgRcpt.appendChild(Id);
Element OrgId = doc.createElement("OrgId");
Id.appendChild(OrgId);
Element Othr = doc.createElement("Othr");
OrgId.appendChild(Othr);
Element Id2 = doc.createElement("Id");
Othr.appendChild(Id2);
Id2.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("CS")); //Org ID will go here!
Element Ntfctn = doc.createElement("Ntfctn");
BkToCstmrDbtCdtNtfctn.appendChild(Ntfctn);
Element Id3 = doc.createElement("Id");
Ntfctn.appendChild(Id3);
Id3.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("163V2514435W14QI")); //Transaction ID will go here!
Element CreDtTm2 = doc.createElement("CreDtTm");
Ntfctn.appendChild(CreDtTm2);
CreDtTm2.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("2016-03-31T02:51:44")); //Transaction credit date time will go here!
//Acct tree
Element Acct = doc.createElement("Acct");
Ntfctn.appendChild(Acct);
Element Id4 = doc.createElement("Id");
Acct.appendChild(Id4);
Element Othr2 = doc.createElement("Othr");
Id4.appendChild(Othr2);
Element Id5 = doc.createElement("Id5");
Othr2.appendChild(Id5);
Id5.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("41215212776")); //Acct ID will go here!
//TxsSummry tree
Element TxsSummry = doc.createElement("TxsSummry");
Ntfctn.appendChild(TxsSummry);
Element TtlDbtNtries = doc.createElement("TtlDbtNtries");
TxsSummry.appendChild(TtlDbtNtries);
Element NbOfNtries = doc.createElement("NbOfNtries");
TtlDbtNtries.appendChild(NbOfNtries);
NbOfNtries.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("1")); //Number of entires will go here!
Element Sum = doc.createElement("Sum");
TtlDbtNtries.appendChild(Sum);
Sum.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("97.99")); //Total sum will go here!
//Possible loop will go here
Element Ntry = doc.createElement("Ntry");
Ntfctn.appendChild(Ntry);
Element NtryRef = doc.createElement("NtryRef");
Ntry.appendChild(NtryRef);
NtryRef.appendChild(doc.createTextNode("163V24924AFW1LJ4")); //Ntry Reference ID
Element AmtCcy = doc.createElement("Amt Ccy");
NtryRef.appendChild(AmtCcy);
TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(doc);
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(new File("C:\\Users\\jhamric\\Desktop\\testing.xml"));
transformer.transform(source, result);
}catch (ParserConfigurationException pce){
pce.printStackTrace();
}catch (TransformerException tfe){
tfe.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
I know that is a good bit of code but I thought by posting what I have so far you could understand what I have been able to do. I have no problem creating elements, assigning child elements and assigning a text value to those elements. The problem I am having now involves two different elements I need to create.
The first is the root element, I need to use a namespace like this:
+<Document xmlns="urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:camt.054.001.04">
instead of just having as I currently have.
I did find some answers like here
Issues with xpath that contained namespaces in Java (Dom parser)
that explain using an XPath however I can't really understand how to execute it with my code.
The second problem I have is a field like this:
<Amt Ccy="USD">94134.86</Amt>
As you can see it appears that the tag ="USD" and is also assigned a text node.
I tried doing this
Element AmtCcy = doc.createElement("Amt_Ccy='USD'");
but I get the following error..
Exception in thread "main" org.w3c.dom.DOMException: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified.
at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.CoreDocumentImpl.createElement(Unknown Source)
at creatingXML.CreateXML.main(CreateXML.java:103)
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -agentlib:jvmhook
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xrunjvmhook -Xbootclasspath/a:"C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\Unified Functional Testing\bin\java_shared\classes";"C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\Unified Functional Testing\bin\java_shared\classes\jasmine.jar"
I would really appreciate any help with these two issues.
