Implementing the createTextNode() method in DOM API

In this illustration, we will discuss about the appending the value to the node in XML document.

The createTextNode() method creates a new Text for the specified node as the document element for Text node.

DocumentBuilderFactory class is used to create new DOM parsers and DocumentBuilder is used in code given below for creating an Blank DOM Document.

The following code is used to create a textNode.

Text childElement = doc.createTextNode("string");

Here is the full code of createTextNodeExample.java

import org.w3c.dom.*;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.Text;
import javax.xml.parsers.*;
import javax.xml.transform.*;
import javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;

class createTextNodeExample
{
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    try{

    DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    DocumentBuilder docBuilder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
    Document doc = docBuilder.newDocument();
    Element root = doc.createElement("roseindia");
       doc.appendChild(root);
    Text elmnt=doc.createTextNode("Employee");
      root.appendChild(elmnt);
    Text childElement = doc.createTextNode(":spring");
          root.appendChild(childElement);
     TransformerFactory tranFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer aTransformer = tranFactory.newTransformer();
   Source src = new DOMSource(doc);
    Result dest = new StreamResult(System.out);
    aTransformer.transform(src, dest);

    }catch(Exception e){
     System.out.println(e.getMessage());
         }
     }
}

Output:

C:\>javac createTextNodeExample.java

C:\>java createTextNodeExample
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<roseindia>

Employee:spring

</roseindia>
