Xpath Query Attrubutes 

XOM (XML Object Model) is a tree based java API for processing XML by taking the best ideas from SAX and DOM. It is simple, fast and easy to use. This requires the library xom-1.2.7.jar to be in classpath. The following example shows querying an XML document using XPath expression.

  /**

  public static void main(String[] argsthrows ValidityException, ParsingException, IOException {
    Builder builder = new Builder();
    InputStream ins = XpathQuery3.class.getClassLoader()
          .getResourceAsStream("randoms.xml");
    
    //Reads and parses the XML
    Document doc = builder.build(ins);
    Nodes nodes = doc.query("//RandomNumbers/Number");
    String even = null;
    
    for (int i = ; i < nodes.size() ; i ++) {
      //Read even attribute from each Number
      even = Boolean.parseBoolean(
          nodes.get(i).query("@even").get(0).getValue()) "even" "odd";
      System.out.println(nodes.get(i).getValue() " is " + even);  
    }
  }

}
   

It gives the following output,
