JDOM is open-source Java-based XML parser framework built on top of DOM and SAX, also a document object model(DOM) in-memory representation of an XML document. JDOM makes navigating XML documents easier by providing more straightforward APIs and a standard Java-based collection interface. If you don’t mind downloading a small library to parse an XML file, […]
Note Since Java 8, the JDK built-in Apache Xerces XML parser has been improved a lot, and the majority of the IO classes now default to UTF-8. We cannot simulate the same error anymore, and the internal Xerces APIs are now printing ? for unknown characters instead of showing the error Invalid byte 1 of […]
