Hi mives29,
I just solve the problem. It's quite direct and easy.
1. upload your xml file to any webserver, e.g. http://a.b.c/test.xml
2. use RequestBuilder to get it. your url.
3. String xmlStr = response.getText();
4. use XMlParser to parse the xmlStr. that's it. Sample snippet code
here:
String url = "test.xml";
RequestBuilder requestBuilder = new
RequestBuilder(RequestBuilder.GET,url);
try {
requestBuilder.sendRequest(null, new RequestCallback() {
public void onError(Request request, Throwable exception) {
}
public void onResponseReceived(Request request, Response
response){
String xmlStr=response.getText();
//Parse it then.
}
}
);
} catch (RequestException ex) {
GWT.log(ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
Hope that helps
Sammi
