Question

I just want to parse a XML next to my java file or in the res/xml folder.
I read lots of post an blogs but it just get more confusing!everyone just call the parse function with an URL!like this

Document doc = db.parse(new InputSource(url.openStream()));

I have this part of code and I don’t know how to make it work.

Document doc = db.parse("What Should I pass here");

I tried R.xml.books it’s an Integer and this function wants an Inputstream how should I use this R.xml.books ??

Answer 1

Try openRawResource.

InputStream is = getResources().openRawResource(R.xml.books);
Document doc = db.parse(is);

Your question is very difficult to understand. Good English and lots of descriptive info go a long way towards getting answers 🙂
