Getting started with XMLPullParser

Question

I am trying to use XMLPullParser but I cannot find any useful tutorials. Based off of the instructions on http://xmlpull.org/ I need to download an implementation of XMLPullParser as a jar file and then add it to my class path. However I cannot find any link to any jar file that works. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a jar file I can download.

Thanks

There are .jar files for download if you click "Download Implementation". What's the problem? — Hugo Sousa

Ok, here it is for you.

From the official doc :

XmlPull API Implementations:

XNI 2 XmlPull

XPP3/MXP1

KXML2

Here i use KXML2.

Steps :

Download KXML2 jar file from here.
Create a new java project

Create a new class

Right click the java project -> Properties -> Java Build path -> Libraries -> Add external jar's -> Add downloaded kxml2 jar file.

enter image description here

Java code

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringReader;
import org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParser;
import org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException;
import org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserFactory;

public class XmlPullparserBasic {
public static void main (String args[]) throws XmlPullParserException, IOException
{
    XmlPullParserFactory factory = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();
    factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
    XmlPullParser xpp = factory.newPullParser();
    xpp.setInput( new StringReader ( "<foo>Hello World!</foo>" ) );

    int eventType = xpp.getEventType();

    while (eventType != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
     if(eventType == XmlPullParser.START_DOCUMENT) {
         System.out.println("Start document");
     } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.START_TAG) {
         System.out.println("Start tag "+xpp.getName());
     } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.END_TAG) {
         System.out.println("End tag "+xpp.getName());
     } else if(eventType == XmlPullParser.TEXT) {
         System.out.println("Text "+xpp.getText());
     }
     eventType = xpp.next();
    }

    System.out.println("End document");

  }

}

Output :
