Question

I am new to Java and I have a question:

Is there any possibility to store/set integer values in XML? I would like to set

• X0 = 123
• Y0 = 123
• X1 = 123
• Y1 = 130

from xml file below

<line>
    <point> 
        <X>123</X>
        <Y>123</Y> 
    </point> 
    <point> 
        <X>123</X> 
        <Y>130</Y>
    </point> 
</line>

Answer 1

I would suggest create a Point class with attributes X/Y and getter/setters for X/Y.

Use SAX parser to parse the XML (There are other techniques also like DOM/ Pull parser etc.,) and populate Point object and add it to List.
