Getting next Tag in the XML File
This Example shows you how to get the next Tag from the XML File. JAXP (Java
API for XML Processing) is an interface which provides parsing of xml documents.
Here the Document BuilderFactory is used to create new DOM parsers.There are
some of the methods used in code given below for Modifying a DOM Tree:-
XMLInputFactory Factory =
XMLInputFactory.newInstance():-By this method we create a new instance of the factory.
XMLStreamReader reader = Factory.createXMLStreamReader(new
FileInputStream(file)):-Creates a new StreamReader which allows forward, read-only access to XML.
eventTypeID =
reader.nextTag():-This method is used to skip events i.e COMMENT and PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION until a START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT is reached.
eventTypeID =
reader.next():-By using this method we get the next parsing event.
Xml code for the program generated is:-

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
