Overview
InLineXmlEditor is an API that can be used to modify XML files on disk directly from Java programs.
A typical usage pattern is the following:
File file = ...;
InLineXmlEditor editor = new InLineXmlEditor(file);
boolean changeOccurred = editor.set("/path/in/document", "value");
if (changeOccurred) {
editor.save();
}
else {
//
// the value we're trying to set is identical with the value present in the file, react accordingly
//
}
The modification preserves the original format, nothing is modified except the value that is being changed.
