Shell script to map XML nodes
Hi folks,

I'm a bit of a novice at this but here goes. I want to read in nodes from an XML file, and map the path to each.

eg the file is structured

<node><nodename>.</nodename>
<node><nodename>topnode</nodename>
<node><nodename>subnode1</nodename></node>
<node><nodename>subnode2</nodename></node>
</node>
</node>

and i want my output to be something along the lines of

.
./topnode
./topnode/subnode1
./topnode/subnode2

The XML files I am working with are 5-15 thousand lines long, and have many layers as above. I am able to get the nodes and so forth using SED and GREP without issue, but mapping them is a whole other challenge.

Any one any ideas?

thanks in advance,
mark

pom_xpath_replace

POM_XPATH_REPLACE(7)						Java Packages Tools					      POM_XPATH_REPLACE(7)

NAME

       pom_xpath_replace - replace XML node from POM file with given XML code

SYNOPSIS

       %pom_xpath_replace XPath XML-code [POM-location]

DESCRIPTION

       This macro patches specified POM file removing all XML nodes described by the XPath expression and injecting given XML code in their place.

       XPath is an expression describing a set of XML nodes to be removed from the POM file. It must be a properly formated XPath 1.0 expression,
       as described in http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/.

       POM location can be either a full path to the POM file, or a path to the directory containing pom.xml. If POM location is not given then
       pom.xml from current working directory is used.

BUGS

       POM files use a specific namespace - http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0. Currently this namespace needs to be explicitly specified in all
       XPath POM macros by prefixing all node names with pom:.
