This is an update to the SimpleXMl library I posted here; https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/simplexml.75571/#post-748743
This update now allows reading and writing of XML files. The node traversal is now done via the XmlNodes so this is a new library.
Example project attached.
Quick example to create an XML;
Quick example to read (remember this is Xpath based). Notice that we dont include root in the Xpath query as GetNodes uses a node (in this case it is the root node itself).
animals.xml is as follows;

Quick example to create an XML;
B4X:
Dim doc As SimpleXMLWrapper
doc.Initialize("animals") 'Root node is animals
Dim root As XmlNode
root = doc.RootNode
Dim dog As XmlNode = root.appendChild("dog")
dog.SetAttribute("name","Ginger")
Dim dog As XmlNode = root.appendChild("dog")
dog.SetAttribute("name","Cheyenne")
Dim cat As XmlNode = root.appendChild("cat")
cat.SetAttribute("name","Polly")
Log(doc.toString)
doc.SaveDocument(File.DirApp&"\animals.xml")Quick example to read (remember this is Xpath based). Notice that we dont include root in the Xpath query as GetNodes uses a node (in this case it is the root node itself).
B4X:
Dim doc2 As SimpleXMLWrapper
doc2.Initialize2(File.DirApp&"\animals.xml")
Dim root As XmlNode
root = doc2.RootNode
Dim nodes As List
nodes = root.GetNodes("cat/kitten")
For Each kitten As XmlNode In nodes
Log(kitten.GetAttribute("name"))
Nextanimals.xml is as follows;
XML:
<animals>
<dog name="Ginger"/>
<dog name="Cheyenne"/>
<cat name="Polly">
<kitten name="Snowball 1"/>
<kitten name="Snowball 2"/>
<kitten name="Snowball 3"/>
</cat>
<hamster name="Gizmo">Furzilla</hamster>
</animals>Attachments
