Java Utililty Methods XML Node Print

void prettyPrint(Node root)
Can help debug Node objects from IIOMetadata#getAsTree(String) .

displayMetadata(root, 0);

void prettyPrintLoop(Node node, StringBuilder string, String indentation)
pretty Print Loop

if (node == null) {
 return;
int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.DOCUMENT_NODE:
 string.append("\n");
 prettyPrintLoop(node.getChildNodes(), string, indentation + "\t");
...

String prettyPrintNode(Node aNode, int indent)
pretty Print Node

StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
if (aNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
 String uri = aNode.getNamespaceURI() == null ? "" : (" xmlns=\"" + aNode.getNamespaceURI() + "\"");
 StringBuilder attrs = new StringBuilder();
 NamedNodeMap attrss = aNode.getAttributes();
 for (int k = 0; k < attrss.getLength(); k++) {
 Node atr = attrss.item(k);
 attrs.append(" " + atr.getNodeName() + "=\"" + atr.getNodeValue() + "\"");
...

String print(Node node)
Print a Node tree recursively.

if (node == null) {
 return null;
StringBuffer xml = new StringBuffer(100);
int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: {
 xml.append('<');
...

void print(Node node)
Prints the specified node, recursively.

if (node == null) {
 return;
System.out.println("");
int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.DOCUMENT_NODE: {
 print(((Document) node).getDocumentElement());
...

void printArrayContent(Node[] t)
print Array Content

for (Node o : t) {
 System.out.println(o.getNodeName());

void printDifferences(Node node1, Node node2)
print Differences

if (node1.getNodeType() == Node.DOCUMENT_NODE)
 node1 = ((Document) node1).getDocumentElement();
if (node2.getNodeType() == Node.DOCUMENT_NODE)
 node2 = ((Document) node2).getDocumentElement();
if (node1.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
 NamedNodeMap attrs1 = node1.getAttributes();
 NamedNodeMap attrs2 = node2.getAttributes();
 Node child1, child2;
...

void printDOM(Node node)
Prints the specified node, then prints all of its children.

int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.DOCUMENT_NODE: {
 System.out.println("<?xml version=\"1.0\" ?>");
 printDOM(((Document) node).getDocumentElement());
 break;
case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: {
...

void printDOM(Node node, String prefix)
Prints the specified node, then prints all of its children.

int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.DOCUMENT_NODE: {
 System.out.println("<?xml version=\"1.0\" ?>");
 printDOM(((Document) node).getDocumentElement(), prefix + " ");
 break;
case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: {
...

void printDOMTree(Node node, PrintStream out)
For debug purpose.

int type = node.getNodeType();
switch (type) {
case Node.DOCUMENT_NODE: {
 printDOMTree(((Document) node).getDocumentElement(), out);
 break;
case Node.ELEMENT_NODE: {
 out.print("<");
