Java&Xml教程（八）使用JDOM将Java对象转换为XML

在前面的教程中我们学习了如何使用JDOM解析和修改XML文件内容，本节介绍如何将Java对象转换为XML数据并生成文件。
JDOM的Document类提供了便捷的方法创建元素和属性，XMLOutputter 类能将Document写到任何OutputStream和Writer对象中。
在本例中我们创建Employee对象集合并将它写到XML文件中。
Employee.java

package com.journaldev.xml;

public class Employee {
    private int id;
    private String name;
    private String gender;
    private int age;
    private String role;

    public Employee(){}

    public Employee(int id, String name, int age, String gender, String role){
        this.id=id;
        this.age=age;
        this.name=name;
        this.gender=gender;
        this.role=role;
    }

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
    public String getGender() {
        return gender;
    }
    public void setGender(String gender) {
        this.gender = gender;
    }
    public int getAge() {
        return age;
    }
    public void setAge(int age) {
        this.age = age;
    }
    public String getRole() {
        return role;
    }
    public void setRole(String role) {
        this.role = role;
    }

}

我们将Employee对象id作为XML文件中Employee元素的属性，并且设置根元素Employees的命名空间为“http://www.journaldev.com/employees”
JDOMXMLWriter.java

package com.journaldev.xml.jdom;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import org.jdom2.Document;
import org.jdom2.Element;
import org.jdom2.Namespace;
import org.jdom2.output.Format;
import org.jdom2.output.XMLOutputter;

import com.journaldev.xml.Employee;

public class JDOMXMLWriter {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        List<Employee> empList = new ArrayList<>();
        empList.add(new Employee(1, "Pankaj",25,"Male","Java Developer"));
        empList.add(new Employee(2, "Mona",34,"Female","Manager"));
        empList.add(new Employee(3, "Dave",45,"Male","Support"));

        String fileName = "employees.xml";
        writeFileUsingJDOM(empList, fileName);
    }

    private static void writeFileUsingJDOM(List<Employee> empList, String fileName) throws IOException {
        Document doc = new Document();
        doc.setRootElement(new Element("Employees",  Namespace.getNamespace("http://www.journaldev.com/employees")));
        for(Employee emp : empList){
            Element employee = new Element("Employee");
            employee.setAttribute("id",""+emp.getId());
            employee.addContent(new Element("age").setText(""+emp.getAge()));
            employee.addContent(new Element("name").setText(emp.getName()));
            employee.addContent(new Element("gender").setText(emp.getGender()));
            employee.addContent(new Element("role").setText(emp.getRole()));
            doc.getRootElement().addContent(employee);
        }
        //JDOM document is ready now, lets write it to file now
        XMLOutputter xmlOutputter = new XMLOutputter(Format.getPrettyFormat());
        //output xml to console for debugging
        //xmlOutputter.output(doc, System.out);
        xmlOutputter.output(doc, new FileOutputStream(fileName));
    }

}

运行程序将获得下面的XML文件：
employees.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Employees xmlns="http://www.journaldev.com/employees">
  <Employee xmlns="" id="1">
    <age>25</age>
    <name>Pankaj</name>
    <gender>Male</gender>
    <role>Java Developer</role>
  </Employee>
  <Employee xmlns="" id="2">
    <age>34</age>
    <name>Mona</name>
    <gender>Female</gender>
    <role>Manager</role>
  </Employee>
  <Employee xmlns="" id="3">
    <age>45</age>
    <name>Dave</name>
    <gender>Male</gender>
    <role>Support</role>
  </Employee>
</Employees>
