Question

I need to transform my XML into another datastructure.
I recieve the XML like below:

<results>
  <resultset>
    <result>
      <name>BMW Cars</name>
      <code>BMW Pkw</code>
      <model.model>730d Saloon</model.model>
      <model.name>KM21</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>BMW Cars</name>
      <code>BMW Pkw</code>
      <model.model>120i 3 doors</model.model>
      <model.name>UA51</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>BMW Cars</name>
      <code>BMW Pkw</code>
      <model.model>Z4 sDrive23i</model.model>
      <model.name>LM31</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>Audi</name>
      <code>AUDI</code>
      <model.model>A4 SAL.3.0 Q SPT TIP 5SPD</model.model>
      <model.name>8E2SFZ04</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>Audi</name>
      <code>AUDI</code>
      <model.model>A6 SAL. 2.5TDI SPORT MAN.6SP.</model.model>
      <model.name>4B2BBC04</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>AUdi</name>
      <code>AUDI</code>
      <model.model>A8 4.2 QUATTRO 6-SPD TIP</model.model>
      <model.name>4E201L04</model.name>
    </result>
  </resultset>
</results>

And I need it to be like this:

<results>
  <resultset>
    <result>
      <name>BMW Cars</name>
      <code>BMW Pkw</code>
      <model.model>730d Saloon</model.model>
      <model.name>KM21</model.name>
      <model.model>120i 3 doors</model.model>
      <model.name>UA51</model.name>
      <model.model>Z4 sDrive23i</model.model>
      <model.name>LM31</model.name>
    </result>
    <result>
      <name>Audi</name>
      <code>AUDI</code>
      <model.model>A4 SAL.3.0 Q SPT TIP 5SPD</model.model>
      <model.name>8E2SFZ04</model.name>
      <model.model>A6 SAL. 2.5TDI SPORT MAN.6SP.</model.model>
      <model.name>4B2BBC04</model.name>
      <model.model>A8 4.2 QUATTRO 6-SPD TIP</model.model>
      <model.name>4E201L04</model.name>
    </result>
  </resultset>
</results>

I’ve spent a lot of time to solve this, but no luck so far.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
