Is it possible to get a child of an element based on a attribute value
without using XPath? I have been able to get it working with XPath, but am
hoping for a cleaner implementation.
What I am looking for is something like the following:
String value = document.getRootElement().root.getChild("ElementName", new
Attribute("name", "value")).getText();
This of course would return the first child element that matched the name
and contained the attribute.
Ideally this could be extended to support a multiple attribute list.
Thanks
