Generate/get xpath from XML node java

Question

I\'m interested in advice/pseudocode code/explanation rather than actual implementation.

• I\'d like to go trough xml document

Answer 1

1. use w3c.dom
2. go recursively down
3. for each node there is easy way to get it's xpath: either by storing it as array/list while #2, or via function which goes recursively up until parent is null, then reverses array/list of encountered nodes.

something like that.

UPD: and concatenate final list in order to get final xpath. don't think attributes will be a problem.
