使用DOM解析器将树节点填充到XML文档之外的JTree中

Question

I am a beginner in Java. I am trying to populate a JTree dynamically from an XML file(helloWorld.xml in this case), using DOM parser. I took help for my code from the flowing Thread: Creating a JTree out of an XML document using DOM parser

package java_img_parser.jtrees;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JTree;
import javax.swing.tree.DefaultMutableTreeNode;
import javax.swing.tree.DefaultTreeModel;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;

public class XMLTree extends JTree {
DefaultTreeModel dm;
JTree tree = new JTree(dm);

public XMLTree() throws SAXException, IOException {
    this.dm = treeBuilder();
}

public DefaultTreeModel treeBuilder() throws SAXException, IOException{
    Node root = null;
    DefaultTreeModel dtModel = null;
    DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    try {
        DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
        Document doc = db.parse("helloWorld.xml");
        root = (Node)doc.getDocumentElement();
    } catch (ParserConfigurationException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(XMLTree.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }

    if(root != null){
        dtModel = new DefaultTreeModel(makeTree(root));
        dtModel.reload();
    }
    return dtModel;
}
private DefaultMutableTreeNode makeTree(Node root){
    DefaultMutableTreeNode rootTreeNode;
    rootTreeNode = new DefaultMutableTreeNode(root.getNodeName());
    NodeList nodeList = root.getChildNodes();
    for(int count=0;count<nodeList.getLength();count++){
        Node tempNode = nodeList.item(count);
        if(tempNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE){
            if(tempNode.hasChildNodes()){
                rootTreeNode.add(makeTree(tempNode));
            }
        }
    }
    System.out.println("Child-Node of"+root.getParentNode()+"is"+root.getChildNodes());
    return rootTreeNode;

}


public static void main(String args[]) throws SAXException, IOException{
    JFrame myFrame = new JFrame();
    myFrame.setTitle("XmlJTreeExample");
    myFrame.setSize(300, 500);
    myFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    myFrame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);

    XMLTree myTree = new XMLTree();
    System.out.println("Height of this JTree is:" + myTree.tree.getHeight());

    myFrame.add(myTree.tree);
    myFrame.setVisible(true);

    }
}

When i do a println() i can see that the child nodes are being traversed. But the same nodes are not getting added to my JTree(It showing zero(0) height).

My source XML file is the same as in the above thread:

<?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>

The output i get is a blank JFrame and this in the output console: run:

Child-Node of[student: null]is[name: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[course: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[semester: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[scheme: null]
Child-Node of[people: null]is[student: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[name: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[course: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[semester: null]
Child-Node of[student: null]is[scheme: null]
Child-Node of[people: null]is[student: null]
Child-Node of[#document: null]is[people: null]
Height of this JTree is:0

Swing revolves around the model, the model is king. Basically, you want to load the contents of the XML into the TreeModel based on the structure you're trying to make.

Once you have the model loaded, you apply it to an instance of JTree
