Below is the code to do it in VTD-XML

import com.ximpleware.*;

public class queryAttr{
     public static void main(String[] s) throws VTDException{
         VTDGen vg= new VTDGen();
         if (!vg.parseFile("input.xml", false))
            return false;
         VTDNav vn = vg.getNav();
         AutoPilot ap = new AutoPilot(vn);
         ap.selectXPath("//xml/ep/source/@type");
         int i=0;
         while((i = ap.evalXPath())!=-1){
               system.out.println(" attr val ===>"+ vn.toString(i+1));

         }
     }
}
