JavaFx XML file read

Hi all,

I am new to JavaFx scripting and due to time constraints couldnt read much about it.
I have a requirement wherein i need to read the contents of an xml file. I found an example on the net but couldnt get it working..
This is my code

def group:Group = Group {    
    
    content: [readXMLFileContents()]

}

def widget:Widget = Widget{
    width:50
    height:50
    content: [group]
}

// my sandwich starts as an empty VBox
var mysandwich = VBox {}

// give a name and returns a ImageView with a png image like the name
function ingredient(name){
   return Text{
           content:"{name}"
   }
}

function readXMLFileContents(){

try{
var myparser = PullParser {
   documentType: PullParser.XML;
  
   input: new FileInputStream("/temp/test.xml");
   onEvent: function (e: Event) {
       // starter xml elements
      if(e.type == PullParser.START_ELEMENT){

// bread
         if(e.qname.name.equals("bread")){
             insert ingredient("bread_top") into mysandwich.content;
         }

// hamburguer
         if(e.qname.name.equals("hamburguer")){
             insert ingredient("hamburguer") into mysandwich.content;
         }

// catchup
         if(e.qname.name.equals("catchup")){
             insert ingredient("catchup") into mysandwich.content;
         }

// maionese
         if(e.qname.name.equals("maionese")){
             insert ingredient("maionese") into mysandwich.content;
         }

// lettuce
         if(e.qname.name.equals("lettuce")){
             insert ingredient("lettuce") into mysandwich.content;
         }

// cheese
         if(e.qname.name.equals("cheese")){
            var type= e.getAttributeValue(QName{name:"type"});
            if(type.equals("cheedar")){
                 insert ingredient("cheedar") into mysandwich.content;
            } else {
                insert ingredient("cheese") into mysandwich.content;
            }
         }
      }

// ending xml elements (just bread)
      if(e.type == PullParser.END_ELEMENT){
         if(e.qname.name.equals("bread")){
            insert ingredient("bread_botton") into mysandwich.content;
         }
      }
   }

}
myparser.parse();

/*Stage {
   title: "XML Sandwich"
   scene: Scene { content: list1 }
}*/

}catch(Exception){
    println("An error ocurred in readXMLFileContents.");
   
}
Group{
    content: [mysandwich]
}

}

Are you testing it in applet mode? In this case, you must sign the applet.

Looking again, I see backslashes. You are on Windows? You should specify a drive (absolute path), I think, something like: "E:/temp/test.xml"
It is hard to say on which drive the current directory is (unless you have only one disk & partition).

I am not testing in applet mode. I just run the project in netbeans 6 or alternatively, running the project creates a projectName.jnlp file which i can add to widgetFX dock

I even tried giving the complete drive path but still get the same exception..

The you probably need to set the permissions. Just follow the link to FilePermission class from this forum.

For the record (I already answered in the Sun forum...), WidgetFX requires its widgets to be signed like an applet when doing system access.
