Apache Digester应用实例 [转]

前段时间项目中需要根据xml文件创建java对象,而apache commons-digester是首选.

一直想把它写下来,可是总有点懒

这次介绍一下digester的常用法,其他更高级的使用方法请参阅digester doc(由于比较忙,下次有时间写一篇关于cglib的常用法,呵呵)

一.序

Digester是apache的一个组件 apache commons-digester.jar,通过它可以很方便的从xml文件生成java对象.你不用再象以前通过jdom或者Xerces去读取一个document对象.(jdom和Xerces仍然有它们的用武之地及强大之处,在其它应用里你也少不了它们)

我只是用一个例子展示一下如何把xml文件生成一个java object.

首先你必须把jar加入到你的项目classpath.

(一)准备:

1.环境: Eclipse, jdk1.4+

2.需求说明：学院包含学生和老师，学生可以选修课程，老师有不同的资格认证。

3.Java Class的定义，简洁起见，略去import内容。

4.使用Digester生成java对象 必须要定义一个xml文件，此xml文件必须符合digester-rules.dtd的规则。

5.所有的xml文件必须在classpath路径中，这样可以通过Class.getClassLoader().getInputStream()读取xml文件。

(二)提要:

本示例所需的java class 和 xml文件分成四类:

1.基础xml文件: [academy.xml]: 你将要解析的xml文件.

2.基础java class: [Academy.java, Teacher.java, Student.java, Cousre.java]: 生成的对象的类定义

3.digesterRules.xml: [academyRules.xml]: 定义了基础xml文件到基础java class的匹配(映射)关系

4.Digester class: [DigestXMLJavaAcademy.java]: 根据digesterRules.xml去解析基础xml文件,并生成java 对象

二.基础Java Class

1.学院 class Academy.java

Java代码



public class Academy {
private Vector students;
private Vector teachers;
private String name;

public Academy() {
students = new Vector();
teachers = new Vector();
}

public void addStudent(Student student) {
students.addElement(student);
}

public void addTeacher(Teacher teacher) {
teachers.addElement(teacher);
}

public Vector getStudents() {
return students;
}

public void setStudents(Vector newStudents) {
students = newStudents;
}
public Vector getTeachers() {
return teachers;
}

public void setTeachers(Vector newTeachers) {
teachers = newTeachers;
}

public String getName() {
return name;
}

public void setName(String newName) {
name = newName;
}
}

============================================================

2.学生 Student.java

Java代码



public class Student {
private Vector courses;
private String name;
private String division;

public Student() {
courses = new Vector();
}

public void addCourse(Course course) {
courses.addElement(course);
}

public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String newName) {
name = newName;
}

public String getDivision() {
return division;
}

public void setDivision(String newDivision) {
division = newDivision;
}

public void setCourses(Vector courses) {
this.courses = courses;
}

public Vector getCourses() {
return courses;
}
}

============================================================

3.老师 Teacher.java

Java代码



public class Teacher {
private String name;
private Vector certifications;

public Teacher() {
certifications = new Vector();
}

public void addCertification(String certification) {
certifications.addElement(certification);
}

public String getName() {
return name;
}

public void setName(String newName) {
name = newName;
}

public void setCertifications(Vector certifications) {
this.certifications = certifications;
}

public Vector getCertifications() {
return certifications;
}
}

============================================================

4.课程 Course.java

Java代码



public class Course {
private String id;
private String name;

public Course() {
}

public String getId() {
return id;
}

public void setId(String newId) {
id = newId;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}

public void setName(String newName) {
name = newName;
}
}

三.基础XML文件

============================================================

学院 academy.xml,包含了学生(包含了课程),老师

Java代码



<?xml version="1.0"?>
<academy name="JAcademy" >
<student name="JavaBoy" division="A">
<course>
<id>C1</id>
<name>JSP</name>
</course>
<course>
<id>C2</id>
<name>Servlets</name>
</course>
</student>
<student name="JavaGirl" division="B">
<course>
<id>C3</id>
<name>EJB</name>
</course>
</student>

<teacher name="JavaGuru">
<certification>SCJP</certification>
<certification>SCWCD</certification>
</teacher>
<teacher name="JavaMaster">
<certification>OCP</certification>
<certification>SCJP</certification>
<certification>SCEA</certification>
</teacher>
</academy>

============================================================

四.Digester Class

DigestXMLJavaAcademy.java 和academyRules.xml

其中academyRules.xml用来定义xml文件和java对象的匹配(映射)关系,格式要符合digester-rules.dtd格式约束

DigestXMLJavaAcademy.java 根据academyRules.xml解析academy.xml文件并生成 Academy对象.

============================================================

Java代码



1. academyRules.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<digester-rules>
<pattern value="academy">
<object-create-rule classname="com.commonsbook.chap7.academy.Academy" />
<set-properties-rule />
<pattern value="student">
<object-create-rule classname="com.commonsbook.chap7.academy.Student" />
<set-properties-rule />

<pattern value="course">
<object-create-rule classname="com.commonsbook.chap7.academy.Course" />
<bean-property-setter-rule pattern="id"/>
<bean-property-setter-rule pattern="name"/>
<set-next-rule methodname="addCourse" />
</pattern>
<set-next-rule methodname="addStudent" />
</pattern>

<pattern value="teacher">
<object-create-rule classname="com.commonsbook.chap7.academy.Teacher" />
<set-properties-rule />
<call-method-rule pattern="certification" methodname="addCertification"
paramcount="1" />
<call-param-rule pattern="certification" paramnumber="0"/>
<set-next-rule methodname="addTeacher" />
</pattern>
</pattern>
</digester-rules>

============================================================

2. DigestXMLJavaAcademy.java

Java代码



public class DigestXMLJavaAcademy {
public void digest(){
try {
//Create Digester using rules defined in academyRules.xml
Digester digester = DigesterLoader.createDigester(
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("academyRules.xml"));

//Parse academy.xml using the Digester to get an instance of Academy
Academy a = (Academy)digester.parse(
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("academy.xml"));

Vector vStud=a.getStudents();
Vector vTeach=a.getTeachers();

for (int i = 0; i < vStud.size(); i++) {
System.out.println("Student>> "+PropertyUtils.describe(vStud.get(i)));
}

for (int i = 0; i < vTeach.size(); i++) {
System.out.println("Teacher>> "+ PropertyUtils.describe(vTeach.get(i)));
}
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
DigestXMLJavaAcademy xmlDigest= new DigestXMLJavaAcademy();
xmlDigest.digest();
}
}

用到的包有：commons-beanutils*.jar ;common-digester.jar ; common-logging.jar

五.运行结果

自己运行吧,呵呵
