The Main Class Code
import java.io.File;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException;
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.Attr;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
public class CreateXml {
public static void main(String[] args) throws TransformerException {
ArrayList<String> arrayOne = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> arrayTwo = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> arrayThree = new ArrayList<String>();
for(int i = 0; i < 20; i++){
arrayOne.add("Element : " + Integer.toString(i));
arrayTwo.add("Element : " + Integer.toString(i));
arrayThree.add("Element : " + Integer.toString(i));
}
DocumentBuilderFactory docFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder docBuilder;
try {
docBuilder = docFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
// root elements
Document doc = docBuilder.newDocument();
Element rootElement = doc.createElement("Root");
doc.appendChild(rootElement);
for (int i = 0; i < arrayOne.size(); i++) {
// elements
Element staff = doc.createElement("Value");
rootElement.appendChild(staff);
// set attribute to element
Attr attr = doc.createAttribute("id");
attr.setValue(arrayThree.get(i).toString());
staff.setAttributeNode(attr);
Element tag1 = doc.createElement("tag1");
tag1.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(arrayOne.get(i).toString()));
staff.appendChild(tag1);
Element tag2 = doc.createElement("tag2");
tag2.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(arrayTwo.get(i).toString()));
staff.appendChild(tag2);
}
TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer;
try {
transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(doc);
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(new File("d:\\developersnoteXMLFile.xml"));
// Output to console for testing
// StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
transformer.transform(source, result);
System.out.println("File saved!");
} catch (TransformerConfigurationException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
