read Xml file with JAXB
javax.xml.bind.UnmarshalException: unexpected element (uri:"", local:"config"). Expected elements are (none)
at com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.UnmarshallingContext.handleEvent(UnmarshallingContext.java:631)
You need to ensure that you associate a class with the root element of the XML document using @XmlRootElement
or @XmlElementDecl
(see: http://blog.bdoughan.com/2012/07/jaxb-and-root-elements.html). Alternatively you can use one of the unmarshal methods that take a Class
parameter to tell JAXB what type of object you are unmarshalling.
Domain Model (Config)
I would recommend having a domain class like the following from which you could obtain the two lists of Property
objects.
import java.util.*;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;
@XmlRootElement
public class Config {
private List<Property> logProperties = new ArrayList<Property>();
private List<Property> envProperties = new ArrayList<Property>();
@XmlElementWrapper(name="log")
@XmlElement(name="property")
public List<Property> getLogProperties() {
return logProperties;
}
@XmlElementWrapper(name="env")
@XmlElement(name="property")
public List<Property> getEnvProperties() {
return envProperties;
}
}
Demo
import java.io.File;
import javax.xml.bind.*;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(Config.class);
Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jc.createUnmarshaller();
File xml = new File("src/forum17059227/input.xml");
Config config = (Config) unmarshaller.unmarshal(xml);
Marshaller marshaller = jc.createMarshaller();
marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_NO_NAMESPACE_SCHEMA_LOCATION, "file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mojalal/Desktop/FirstXSD.xml");
marshaller.marshal(config, System.out);
}
}
input.xml/Output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mojalal/Desktop/FirstXSD.xml">
<env>
<property key="firstenv" value="fo"/>
<property key="123" value="333"/>
</env>
<log>
<property key="firstKey" value="firstValue"/>
<property key="secoundKey" value="secoundKey"/>
<property key="thirdKey" value="thirdValue"/>
</log>
</config>
When you describing an XML model, you need to begin with a root entity (in your case it's the<config>
element).
@XmlRootElement(name="config")
class Config implements Serializable {
private Log log;
private Env env;
@XmlElement(name="log")
public Log getLog() {
return this.log;
}
@XmlElement(name="env")
public Env getEnv() {
return this.env;
}
// Setters are omitted
}
And then you parse the XML like the following:
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(Config.class);
Unmarshaller jaxbUnmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
Config config = (Config) jaxbUnmarshaller.unmarshal(file);
if (config != null && config.getLog() != null) {
customer = config.getLog().getProperties();
}
