Question

I have got the xml from the Http Response,
can any one give me an example for how to parse that http response using the sax parser in android?

Answer 1

This example assumes that all data is in the root node

DocumentBuilderFactory builderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();           
try {
    DocumentBuilder builder = builderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();

    try {
        URL url;
        url = new URL("http://yourURLhere.com" );

        Document document = builder.parse(new InputSource( url.openStream()));

        Element rootElement = document.getDocumentElement();

        try{
            //get the different xml fields here
            Date xmlDateLastNotification = new Date(rootElement.getAttribute("dateLastNotification").toString());
            String someOtherVariable = rootElement.getAttribute("xmlNode").toString();

        }catch(Exception e){}


    } catch (SAXException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
