Hi, I am using XmlBeans for reading content of xml files. That works fine and all works like I expected.
But when I try to write modified content to the specific xml file, something goes wrong. I guess I am missing something. here are some steps of my process: I have schema and I generate java files. I have content inside a xml file (depends on that schema) Reading with "Factory.parse(xmlfile)" is not a problem (if I DON'T change that stuff) here is my small schema: -------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://foo.com" xmlns:pb="http://foo.com" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:element name="page"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="modification" type="xs:dateTime"/> <xs:element name="type" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="header" type="xs:string" /> <xs:element name="container" type="pb:containerType" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> <xs:attribute use="required" name="id" type="xs:string" /> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:complexType name="containerType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="modification" type="xs:dateTime"/> <xs:element name="type" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="contentblock" type="pb:contentBlockType" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> <xs:element name="container" type="pb:containerType" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> <xs:attribute use="required" name="id" type="xs:string" /> </xs:complexType> <xs:complexType name="contentBlockType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="modification" type="xs:dateTime"/> <xs:element name="text" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="type" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="headline" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> </xs:sequence> <xs:attribute use="required" name="id" type="xs:string" /> </xs:complexType> </xs:schema> -------------------------------------------------------- and here is a very small XML file (based upon schema): -------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <page xmlns="http://FOO.com" id="content1"> <type>press</type> <header>HEADER</header> <modification>2005-04-27T09:30:10</modification> <container id="container1"> <type>textcontainer</type> <modification>2005-04-19T09:30:10</modification> <contentblock id="contentblock1"> <type>textcontent</type> <text>fooooooo bar BAR FOO</text> <modification>2005-05-30T09:30:10</modification> </contentblock> </container> </page -------------------------------------------------------- No I modify the stuff and after that I do: XmlOptions xmlOptions = new XmlOptions(); xmlOptions.setSavePrettyPrint(); page.save(xmlFile, xmlOptions); When I now read a second time my xml (the modified stuff) I got this message: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: C:\content1.xml:0: error: The document is not a [EMAIL PROTECTED]://foo.com: multiple document elements I guess this is because of my (re-written) xml file has no root element <page> my content1.xml looks now like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xml-fragment id="content1"> <foo:type xmlns:foo="http://foo.com">press</foo:type> <foo:header xmlns:foo="http://foo.com">hallo1</foo:header> <foo:modification xmlns:foo="http://foo.com">2005-06-08T16:57:23.672+02:00</foo:modification> <foo:container id="container1" xmlns:foo="http://foo.com"> <foo:type>textcontainer</foo:type> <foo:modification>2005-04-19T09:30:10</foo:modification> <foo:contentblock id="contentblock1"> <foo:type>textcontent</foo:type> <foo:text>hallo3</foo:text> <foo:modification>2005-06-08T16:57:23.672+02:00</foo:modification> <foo:headline>hallo2</foo:headline> </foo:contentblock> </foo:container> </xml-fragment> What am I doing wrong on using XmlBeans to *change* XML files? Thanks for any advice. -Matthias --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
