This is my code to parse an XML document and represent it as a JTree . The problem is that I only get the root node in the JTree and nothing else. I tried walking the directory structure with a code similar to this and that worked. I do not know why this does not give me the result I expect.

XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE people SYSTEM "validator.dtd">

<people>
    <student>
        <name>John</name>
        <course>Computer Technology</course>
        <semester>6</semester>
        <scheme>E</scheme>
    </student>

    <student>
        <name>Foo</name>
        <course>Industrial Electronics</course>
        <semester>6</semester>
        <scheme>E</scheme>
    </student>
</people>

Note: If I enter System.out.println() in the visit() method to print element and text nodes, it prints fine. Just that nodes are not added.

Answer 1

Looks like you are adding the children to the wrong parent node. The tree root is set tree = new JTree(node); , but then you add children to DefaultMutableTreeNode root = new DefaultMutableTreeNode(e.getTagName()); which is not part of the tree at all. Quick fix would be changing:

visit(child,root);

to

visit(child,node);

Or execute node.add(root); once all nodes were visited.

Answer 2

Try this and it should work:
