Re: adding attributes from a string

Hi,

Construct valid xml from the <source> element text. Ssomething like this:

    SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder();
    String source = "<source>firstname='john' lastname='doe' age='42'</source>";
    Document doc = builder.build(new StringReader(source));
    String constructed = "<result " + doc.getRootElement().getText() + "/>";
    Document result = builder.build(new StringReader(constructed));
    new XMLOutputter().output(result, System.out);
