[jdom-interest] Probably a Stupid Question but...

[Brad Morgan]

When I execute my program from its .class files it works.

When I place all the .class files into a jar file, it fails when I try and
open the xml file (can't find SAXBuilder, see below).

Program starts and displays its main window, so I think the jar file is
build correctly (and I have other programs not using JDOM that work being
built this way).

What am I doing wrong?

(Windows NT 4.0, JDK 1.3, I'm developing using Forte for Java CE 1.0.2 but I
built everything for this test using just the JDK tools)

Regards,

Brad

Subject: [jdom-interest] XMLOutputter - Unwanted line breaks occurring
between tags




I am using XMLOutputter to output XML with line breaks, and it is working
reasonably well.  However, I have noticed that when an element whose
content is null is outputted, a line break occurs between the opening and
closing tags.  I would prefer that the opening and closing tags occur on
the same line as they do when the element's content is an empty string.

For example, the following code:
     root.addContent(new Element("name").setText(null));
produces the following output:
     <name>
     </name>

However the following code:
     root.addContent(new Element("name").setText(""));
produces the following output:
     <name></name>

The line break appears to occur because the test for "stringOnly" in the
printElement() method of XMLOutputter results in false when the element's
content is null.  I recommend modifying the test for "stringOnly" to
include the check for a null value.  That seems to cause the output of an
element's tags to appear on the same line when the content is null.

protected void printElement(Element element, Writer out,
                    int indentLevel, NamespaceStack namespaces)  throws
IOException {
     List mixedContent = element.getMixedContent();
     boolean empty = mixedContent.size() == 0;
     boolean stringOnly =
          !empty &&
          mixedContent.size() == 1 &&
          (mixedContent.get(0) instanceof String || mixedContent.get(0) ==
null);
