could any one provide an example of extracting all the elements with their attributes and values from an xml file using xpath in java?

Answer 1

Use this XPath expression "//*" in this way

Document doc = ... // the document on which apply XPath
XPathExpression xp = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath().compile("//*");
NodeList elements = (NodeList) xp.evaluate(doc, XPathConstants.NODESET);

It return to you all the elements at any level.
