XOM API for Processing XML with Java

["Mikael Petterson" <mikael.petterson AT ericsson.com>]

Hi,

Thanks for an excellent piece of software. Easy to use. ( I am using xom
1.1).

I need to add a node to an existing node in an xml document.
So I parse the file and then try to find the node that I wan't to add
another node to.
I find it but It seems like I can only get a list of my children for
that node that I pointed out in my Xpath expression.
Is it not possible to get the node that I searched for so I would have
something like:

Node matchingNode =
doc.query("//con:testCase[@id='2ad7f0bc-efa0-4e79-8068-eee7a0fed9a1']",c
ontext);
Then I gould add to this node and serialize down to file to create the
new resulting xml file.
I might have missed some concepts.

I will attach the xml file I am working on.
 <<defaultdata-soapui-project.xml>> 
All hints and pointers are greatly appreciated.

Br,

Here is my simple code:
=================
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;


import nu.xom.Builder;
import nu.xom.Document;
import nu.xom.Element;
import nu.xom.Nodes;
import nu.xom.ParsingException;
import nu.xom.ValidityException;
import nu.xom.XPathContext;


public class XomHandler {

        /**
         * @param args
         * @throws ParsingException 
         * @throws ValidityException 
         */
        public static void main(String[] args) throws ValidityException,
ParsingException {
                
                
                //Read the xml-file
                Builder builder = new Builder();
        Document doc = null;
                try {
                        doc = builder.build(new
File("C:\\tmp\\defaultdata-soapui-project.xml"));
                } catch (ValidityException e) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                        e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (ParsingException e) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                        e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }
        //System.out.println(doc.toXML());
        
        
        //Now get the node in question.
        
        Element root = doc.getRootElement();
        XPathContext context = new XPathContext("con",
"http://eviware.com/soapui/config";);
        //Get the 
        Nodes nodes =
doc.query("//con:testCase[@id='2ad7f0bc-efa0-4e79-8068-eee7a0fed9a1']",c
ontext);
        
        for (int i = 0; i < nodes.size(); i++) {
                        System.out.print(nodes.get(i).getValue());
                        
                }
        
        //Here I wan't to use the node that I searched for and add some
nodes below it.
        
        
        
        
        
        
                
        }
