[jdom-interest] org.jdom.IllegalAddException: The attribute already has an existi ng parent "transaction"

[Pandia, Rajesh]

We have an application that was using  JDOM Beta4/Beta5 version.  Now, we
have moved on to JDOM Beta8/Beta9 version.  How do I know what JDOM version
is installed on my machine by just looking at the JAR files ? What do I need
to do fix this exception ?

=========================================
I am seeing the following exception:

**********Error Trace::Version 10.5.0.0.012604::Mon Feb 23 15:53:59 2004 (

:59.155 GMT  t at 616 )
  #0  Error #1600039  XML sent from servlet read.
org.jdom.IllegalAddException: The attribute already has an existing parent
"transaction"

**********

=========================================

Here is the code-snippet where the exception is being thrown:

    try
    {
      // get the settings required to load the xml dropped by servlet
      IntegrationGlobalConfigObject gco = new
IntegrationGlobalConfigObject();
      getAttribute(context, gco, IntegrationGlobalConfigObject.IN_RIP_MODE);
      getAttribute(context, gco,
IntegrationGlobalConfigObject.LOCAL_PROJECT_FILEPATH);

      codeRegn = "GCO read.";

      // load the xml
      Element elCommandRoot = loadXMLSentFromServlet(gco, args[0], context);

      codeRegn = "XML sent from servlet read.";

      // prepare preliminary response header
      // create the response placeholder
      Element elResponseRoot = new Element("transaction");
      // copy/modify attributes from request
      System.out.println("1");
      elResponseRoot.setAttributes(elCommandRoot.getAttributes());
      System.out.println("2");
      elResponseRoot.getAttribute("type").setValue("response");
      System.out.println("3");
      .....
