Hi,

I am parsing the the xml which i have received as response inputstream after http connection.

xml format is as follows,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!--
    Document   : LoginAuthentication.xml
    Created on : 2 September, 2008, 11:07 AM
    Author     : admin
    Description:
        Purpose of the document follows.
-->


<OpenPWS>
   <status> true  </status>
</OpenPWS>
    

 and the source code peace to parse is as follows,

                DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
                DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
                try{
                    document = builder.parse(is);//is contains the response inputstream

               }catch(Exception e){
                    notifyUser("exception in builder.parse"+e.getMessage());
                }

but i am getting the "exception in builder.parse" exception.

can any one tell me whats the problem here?.

What is the information message of the exception?  You can see this by calling the toString method of the exception.

i am getting "Processing intruction target may not be in'XML'".

try this

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
InputStream inputStream = getClass().getResourceAsStream( _xmlFileName );
Document document = builder.parse( inputStream);     
Element rootElement = document.getDocumentElement();

The inputstream is coming from server as a inputstreamdata. so i want to parse it dynamically.

the above is working fine with .xml file.

Ok try this way

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
StringBuffer stringBuffer = new StringBuffer("any string like....");
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(stringBuffer.toString().getBytes("UTF-8"));                        
Document document = builder.parse( byteArrayInputStream );

Thanks for your reply.

i think the problem with xml whatever they(server) are sending .
