Answer 1

Since your question is more generic so try to implement it with XML Parsers available in Java .If you need it in specific to parsers, update your code here what you have tried yet

    TEST
    

DocumentBuilderFactory domFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = builder.parse("uri to xmlfile");
XPathFactory xPathfactory = XPathFactory.newInstance();
XPath xpath = xPathfactory.newXPath();
XPathExpression expr = xpath.compile("//ep/source[@type]");
NodeList nl = (NodeList) expr.evaluate(doc, XPathConstants.NODESET);

for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++)
{
    Node currentItem = nl.item(i);
    String key = currentItem.getAttributes().getNamedItem("type").getNodeValue();
    System.out.println(key);
}
