The issue I am having is I want to parse out 1 XML document using extensions of the SAX defaultHandler class. When using just one handler I can parse out XML and assign different tags to properties of an object (see domain and area). Once I have these in the domain and area object I want to add them to another object (GroupedFiles) which has a list of of domains and areas. The issue I am having is parsing out 1 document using 2 handlers. My theory, albeit not the best coding practice, is to parse out the document twice, run through it once using the domain handler, set the domains, then add to grouped files, then do the same for area. Here is the code,\[code\]GroupedFiles groupedFiles = new GroupedFiles();ArrayList<Domain> domains = new ArrayList<Domain>();ArrayList<Area> areas = new ArrayList<Area>();//Create parser from factoryXMLReader parser = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();//Creates an input stream from the file "someFile.xml"InputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File("someFile.xml"));InputSource source = new InputSource(in);//Create handler instancesDomainHandler domainHandler = new DomainHandler();AreaHandler areaHandler = new AreaHandler();//Parses out XML from a document using each handler, //adding it to an object with the correct properties then adds those//to another object which features Lists of Domains, Areas, and Directories.parser.setContentHandler(domainHandler);parser.parse(source);domains = domainHandler.getXML();groupedFiles.setDomain(domains);parser.setContentHandler(areaHandler);parser.parse(source);areas = areaHandler.getXML();groupedFiles.setArea(areas);\[/code\]However I am unable to, and it appears to hang up on the second \[code\]parser.parse(source)\[/code\]. If I look at the groupedFiles after running the domain is populated but areas isn't. Any advice?
