main class

package xml;

public class TestRead {

        read.readConfig("C:\\Users\\Google\\Desktop\\kkkk\\Comediah\\Comediah\\Local\\Book2.xml");
    }
}

no output. just blank. I debug it, I found it did not entered in block to turn boolean flags to true.

Answer 1

You should use element.getName().getLocalPart() instead of element.getName().toString()

getName includes the namespace urn (in this case the getName() would result in something like {urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel}DATA and therefore your equals check is flawed.
