i'm trying to get result of expression of xpath , my xml file is like this :

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</test1>

   <book id="bk101">

      an evil sorceress, and her own childhood to become queen 
      of the world.</description>
   </book>
</catalog>
</all>

and my java code is :

public class xpath_test {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws XPathExpressionException, SAXException, IOException, ParserConfigurationException {


        DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

        DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
        Document doc = (Document) builder.parse("C:\\Users\\HC\\Desktop\\dataset\\book.xml");
        XPathFactory xPathfactory = XPathFactory.newInstance();
        XPath xpath = xPathfactory.newXPath();
        XPathExpression expr = xpath.compile("/all/catalog");
        NodeList nodeList = (NodeList) expr.evaluate(doc, XPathConstants.NODESET);
        for (int i = 0; i < nodeList.getLength(); i++) {
            System.out.println(nodeList.item(i).getFirstChild().getNodeValue());
        }

    }
}

i got an exception :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom.DeferredDocumentImpl cannot be cast to org.jdom2.Document

especially in this line Document doc = (Document) builder.parse("C:\\Users\\HC\\Desktop\\dataset\\book.xml");

knowing that i import import org.jdom2.Document;

Answer 1

try to use the standard interface

import org.w3c.dom.document

instead of

import org.jdom2.Document
