as i know, i can navigate existing xml document by xpath in java, i wonder if i can create a xml document framework by xpath in java?
something like:
Document doc = someobject.create(xpath expression);
then i can use DOM to fill the framework?
Thanks
XPath is a read-only language, it can only be used to select nodes or compute values based on their content. Take a look at XSLT or XQuery if you want to create new documents - they both use XPath as a subset.
