How to create a XML object from String in Java?
If you can create a string xml you can easily transform it to the xml document object e.g. -
String xmlString = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><a><b></b><c></c></a>"; DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder builder; try { builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder(); Document document = builder.parse(new InputSource(new StringReader(xmlString))); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } You can use the document object and xml parsing libraries or xpath to get back the ip address.
try something like
public static Document loadXML(String xml) throws Exception{ DocumentBuilderFactory fctr = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder bldr = fctr.newDocumentBuilder(); InputSource insrc = new InputSource(new StringReader(xml)); return bldr.parse(insrc);}
