How to change my code from JDOM to JAXP?

[Mullin Yu]

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import org.jdom.*;
import org.jdom.input.*;
import org.jdom.output.*;
import org.jdom.xpath.*;


public class DataMapper {

public static List getFieldList(int viewType) throws IOException, JDOMException {

SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder();
Document doc = builder.build("http://localhost/xml/mapping.xml");

XPath fieldPath = XPath.newInstance("//field[ui-display=\"Value1\" or ui-display=\"Value2\"]");
List fields = fieldPath.selectNodes(doc);

return fields;

}
}

Why? JDOM is a huge improvement over JAXP, so much so that even Sun Microsystems admitted it and said it may feature in a futute JDK under a different re-packaged name.

JDOM all the way. The only other way is down.
