[jdom-interest] Element.setChildren(Element.getChildren())

[Alex Rosen]

Have a look at the JDOM FAQ (on www.jdom.org).

Dear all!!

 I have read an XML-file with the "org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser" into
a JDOM tree. I can access all the Elements and Attributes in the tree
perfeclty with the different get functions that org.jdom.Element provides,
but when trying to move a set of Elements to another parent Element the
program throws an org.jdom.IllegalAddException. Typical the code I try to
execute looks like:

Element rootElement = document.getRootElement();
Element otherElement = new Element(<anyName>,<namepaceAsSameAsRootElement>);
otherElement.setChildren(rootElement.getChildren());

Why isn't this working??

Thanks, Markus
