Hello Russel,
i did try using this code:
digester.addBeanPropertySetter
("students/student/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'name']/@value");
digester.addBeanPropertySetter
("students/student/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'course']/@value");
digester.addBeanPropertySetter
("students/student/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'age']/@value");
(i think you forgot a '@' before the name), but it doesn't build the Student
object properly.
this is the output i get:
Using studentXML1: Students List [Name=Java Boy & Course=JSP & Age=10]
Using studentXML2: Students List [Name=null & Course=null & Age=0]
where you can see that fields are not set properly.
