[jdom-interest] XMLOutputter

[J. Albers]

Hi,

I got a bit of a problem, i'm using XMLOutputter to let my application put
some manipulated XML elements in the output in an XML format. But the
problem is i just get it in 1 line like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<linux><gui3></gui3><window-manager></window
manager><type>java</type><name>Enlightenment</name><version3>0.16.2</version
3><gui></gui><window-manager></window
manager><name>Enlightenment</name><version1>0.16.2</version1></linux>


All info i need is there, but not formatted right... it should be :
<linux>
 <gui3>
    <window-manager>
      <type>java</type>
      <name>Enlightenment</name>
      <version3>0.16.2</version3>
    </window-manager>
  </gui3>
  <gui>
    <window-manager bla="2">
      <name>Enlightenment</name>
      <version1>0.16.2</version1>
    </window-manager>
  </gui>
</linux>


Anyone here know what's wrong?

Thanks, Joachim.
