Overview

MutableXMLDocument is an API that applies in-line configuration modifications in XML files.

A typical usage pattern is the following:

File file = ...;
MutableXMLDocument d = new MutableXMLDocument(file);

boolean changeOccurred = d.set("/path/in/document", "value");

if (changeOccurred) {

    d.write();
}
else {

  //
  // the value we're trying to set is identical with the value present in the file, react accordingly 
  //
  
}
