RE: Find object by attribute value

I think the easiest thing would be to using xpath.

I learned the basics of it from a zvon tutorial. Try a search for xpath tutorial.

There is also a sample using xmlbeans

http://xmlbeans.apache.org/samples/XQueryXPath.html

 

I think your xpath would be something like:

//obj[@name=”test1”]

 

Best of luck.

Subject: Find object by attribute value

 

Hi there,

 

is there an easy way to find an object by it's attribute value?

 

<doc>

  <obj name="test1"></obj>

  <obj name="test2"></obj>

</doc>

 

DocDocument.Factory.parse...

getDoc().getObj( where "name" == "test1" )

 

thanks,

 

Alistair
