And I want to extract the numDocs value from the above xml means 111959–

111959

And the below fetchlog method is just reading each line of that jsp file. So how can I retrieve numDocs value by fetching it directly by reading it line by line.

The monitorUrl is a .jsp file which is in xml format.

public void fetchlog() {
        InputStream is = null;
        FileOutputStream fos = null;
        try {
            is = HttpUtil.getFile(monitorUrl);
            BufferedReader in   = 
                new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (is));
            String line;
            while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
                if(line.contains("numDocs")) {
            //Extract numDocs value- How to do this?        
                }
                System.out.println(line);
            }

            fos = new FileOutputStream(buildTargetPath());
            IOUtils.copy(is, fos);
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            log.error("File Exception in fetching monitor logs :" + e);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            log.error("Exception in fetching monitor logs :" + e);
        }
    }

To follow up on my comments, if the XML/text structure is going to be the same, then you can do,

 if(line.contains("numDocs")) {
     //Extract numDocs value- How to do this?
     String numDocs = in.readLine(); // May need trimming.
     System.out.println("Num docs:" + numDocs);   
 }
