Suppose I have a class called Test, like this
public class Test {
private String testId;
private String description;
private String department;
public Test() {}
public Test(String id,String des,String dpt) {
this.testId = id;
this.department = dpt;
this.description = des;
}
public String getTestId() {
return testId;
}
public void setTestId(String testId) {
this.testId = testId;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public String getDepartment() {
return department;
}
public void setDepartment(String department) {
this.department = department;
}
}
Also an XML string that contains data for an object of the class Test. XML string is
<test>
<testId>1</testId>
<description>This is first test</description>
<department>surgeon</department>
</test>
Now my task is to parse that XML string and create an object of the class Test and put all of the data contained in this XML into that object. I am using JDOM for XML parsing. I want to know is there any solution through which all of the data that is in the XML format is directly copied into Test object?
Now I am doing this like this: I parse XML string and get data of every node one by one and then call setter method to set data for each field of the Test class object.
