[jdom-interest] jdom build a JAva Object with a file XML with morethan one item

[Phil Weighill-Smith]

Using JDOM you can read this XML file (see http://www.jdom.org/docs/apidocs/org/jdom/input/SAXBuilder.html) into a JDOM Document (see http://www.jdom.org/docs/apidocs/org/jdom/Document.html). This document will have a root node called "applications" (see http://www.jdom.org/docs/apidocs/org/jdom/Document.html#getRootElement()). This root node will have two child elements, both called "application" (see http://www.jdom.org/docs/apidocs/org/jdom/Element.html).
 
Either using the JDOM API (to which these links take you) or using the JDOM XPath API (see http://www.jdom.org/docs/apidocs/org/jdom/xpath/XPath.html) you can traverse this DOM to read the data (attributes, child elements etc.).
 
Hope that helps,

	  <rule>rule_a</rule>
	        <role>admin</role>
	        <permission>0</permission>
	        <population>allperson
	           <filter>ou=ldapfilter123</filter>

	        <permission>1</permission>
	        <population>users

	        </population>
	   </application>
	   <application key="appli2">
