[jdom-interest] getChildren

[Alex Rosen]

What's wrong with:

Get the list of ALL children
Walk the tree to find the index of the last watcher element
Use List.add() to add the new element right after that one

Hopefully someone has a better answer to this problem.

The problem:

Grab all children named "watcher" from a list
Append a new child to the list of watchers

The new child appears at the end of the original list instead of at the
end
of the watchers list

The solution:

 1- get the list of "tupleID"
 2- remove the children named "tupleID"
 3- add the new "watcher" node
 4- walk through the list of "tupleID" and add each node to the list

Does anyone have a more elegant or intuitive solution?

-------------------------
Yes, but i would that the new added watcher will be at the end of the
list
of the watcher and not at the end of the element tupleID, because i
have a
sequence in the xsd schema associated and so the order must be
respect!!!!
How can relize it?

<instance>
             <watcher>a</watcher>
             <watcher>b</watcher>
                         <watcher>c</watcher>
             <tupleID>1</tupleID>
             <tupleID>3</tupleID>

</instance>

MANY THANKS

i have an element accesslist with inside a sequence of instance
element.Each instance consist on 2 different element named watcher and
tupleid.
<instance>
             <watcher>a</watcher>
             <watcher>b</watcher>
             <tupleID>1</tupleID>
             <tupleID>3</tupleID>
</instance>

My desire is to add a new element watcher. So i do:

List watchers = instance.getChildren("watcher");

Element newatcher = new Element("watcher");
newatcher.setText("c");
watchers.add(newatcher);

but i get:

<instance>
             <watcher>a</watcher>
             <watcher>b</watcher>
             <tupleID>1</tupleID>
             <tupleID>3</tupleID>
             <watcher>c</watcher>
</instance>

that it's wrong!!!Where i do the mistake?
