(JAVA SWING)JTREE + JDOM +XML

[sekhar subbu]

Hi

I need to create an GUI XML editor implemented in java swings .Basically - It should allow me to add child nodes in the displayed XML (jTree) or delete the the child nodes .It should also allow me to edit the content of a particular atrribute of the node .

my xml format is :


FOR EXAMPLE HERE I WANT TO CHANGE the value of V in subchild .

    
<parent>
      <child>
             <subchild  V= "6"/>
       </child>
     <child>
              <subchild  V= "6"/>
      </child>
      <child>
               <subchild  V= "6"/>
       </child>
       <child>
                  <subchild  V= "6"/>
        </child>
</parent>
 

I wish to use JDOM and JAXEN - XPath for xml parsing .

After the editing the XML file , it should be saved as XML file .

Acutally i am new to java SWING programming .So i am confused abt few things.

1.After searching soem topics in forums and internet , i found that it is tough to edit the contents of nodes using jtree.

Am very new to swing ,
so I dont know which one is good or which one is bad to be used for implementation .I really appreciate if someone gives soem ideas for my implementation .

I would also welcome sample codes for the same

With thanks
