Need to save an XML file from Java
Dear fellow Java developers:
I have written some java code that creates an xml document, but I'm having trouble SAVING it on to my local pc as an xml file. I thought it would be similar to writing a text file, but I am a bit off. I have listed my code below, and I think I'm almost there, but not quite. When I run my code, I get the following content within my document.xml file:
[#document: null]
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all who reply.
