Converting a String Object into a XMLStream

[ravi D shankar]

Hi Guys

I have a String object containing xml content which I get from a 'Database Column'.I would like to use that xml content in the String as a InputStream or FileInputStream or XMLInputStream to be used by my 'JAX-B Classes'.

String a = "<parentTag>abc</ParentTag>";
Can I convert the above String to an inputStream or other formats??

Is there a way I can accomplish this ?..

Thanks in Advance
Ravi

try this

String src = "myXML";
javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource s = new StreamSource(src)
InputStream in = s.getInputStream();

Hey Thanks

But in the API
javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource s = new StreamSource(src);
StreamSource takes a URI string rt?
I am not whether it works for a raw xml string??
