creating XML child elements

Posted: Aug 31, 2003 5:30 AM

I'm generating an XML document. I have reached the third hierarchial level i.e.

<level_1>
. <level_2>
. . <level_3>
. <level_2>
. . <level_3>
. <level_2>
<level_1>

Now I am trying to add <level_3> siblings to the existing <level_3> elements and am getting the following exception messages:

com.ibm.xml.parser.TXDOMException: com.ibm.xml.parser.TXNodeList#insert(): Wrong
index: 1
at com.ibm.xml.parser.TXNodeList.insert(TXNodeList.java)
at com.ibm.xml.parser.Parent.realInsert(Parent.java)
at com.ibm.xml.parser.Parent.insert(Parent.java)
at com.ibm.xml.parser.Parent.appendChild(Parent.java)
at Convertor.processNodeRecursively(Convertor.java:302)
at Convertor.processNodeRecursively(Convertor.java:320)
at Convertor.main(Convertor.java:86)

What does this mean and how do I correct this so I can continue creating elements at <level_3> of the XML doc.

Your java program Converter.java should be using the xml standard node methods from the org.w3c.dom api for adding child nodes:

public Node appendChild(Node newChild) throws DOMException
