Java xml parsing?

Question

I am trying to read xml files. I can read and load xml files correctly. I just don't understand how do I read this,

<c c="6" r="182, 0, 192, 15" />

Ps: I am on phone, so dont know how to code format

Edit: the r is, x, y, width and height. Edit: is there any method in java xml that can read the r string as four different int or I have to do it manualy?

Thank you.

I can read and load xml files correctly. Then what are you asking? — Elliott Frisch

I am trying to read the r, which is four coordinate, x,y, width and height, which I am trying to assign on four int. — Cobra

"r" is an attribute of "c". Are you getting the String ("182, 0, 192, 15") back? — Elliott Frisch

Yes, but these are four different values, how do I assign them to four different int. — Cobra

Based on your comment (for splitting the integer values out of a single CSV list in an XML attribute), you could do it with something like -

String str = "182, 0, 192, 15"; String[] values = str.split(", "); if (values.length >= 4) { int x = Integer.parseInt(values[0].trim()); int y = Integer.parseInt(values[1].trim()); int width = Integer.parseInt(values[2].trim()); int height = Integer.parseInt(values[3].trim()); System.out.printf("x = %d, y = %d, width = %d, height = %d\n", x, y, width, height); }

You have a tag "c" --
Element maytag = yourdom.getElementByTagName("c");

Which has attributes:

"c" with a value of "6"

String six = mytag.getAttribute("c");

"r" with a value of "182, 0, 192, 15"

String numlist = mytag.getAttribute("r");

After that you need some plain old Java to split up the string and parse the integers (see Elliot Frisch's answer).

Yes, you have to parse it in some way.
