XML Parsing Methods


1. DOM
2. SAX
3. PULL---- XmlPullParser
Step1: XMLPullParser parser= XML.newPullParser();
Step2: parser.setInput( InputStream is, String encoding-format);
Step 3: while loop
Int type= parser.getEventType();
while (type != XmlPullParser. END_DOCUMENT){

switch(type){
case XmlPullParser.START_TAG:
parser.getName();
parser.nextText();
.
break;
case XmlPullParser.END_TAG:
parser.getName();
parser.nextText();

break;
}
Type= parser.next(); //go to the next event type
}//while loop
