Below is a demonstration of the features of the addAttributeXML function

Contents

clear; close all; clc;

Syntax

[domNode]=addAttributeXML(domNode,elementNode,attrName,attrValue);

Description

This function adds a single attribute defined by attrName and attrValue to the XML defined by the XML object domNode. The attribute value can be a character/string or numerical data. Vector valued data is transformed to comma separated values e.g. 1:3 will become 1, 2, 3. Integer values will remain integer type. For non-integer numberical data exponential notation is used e.g. pi becomes 3.1415927e+00.

Examples

Defining an XML with elements and attributes

The below example codes this XML section:

febio_spec Material id="1" type="Ogden" c>2</c /material /Material /febio_spec

Initialize XML object

domNode = com.mathworks.xml.XMLUtils.createDocument('febio_spec');
rootNode=domNode.getElementsByTagName('febio_spec').item(0);

Add elements

Main element

elementName='Material';
elementValue=[];
[domNode,elementNode,~]=addElementXML(domNode,rootNode,elementName,elementValue);

%A child element of the main element
elementName='material';
elementValue=[];
[domNode,subElementNode,~]=addElementXML(domNode,elementNode,elementName,elementValue);

%A child element of the child element
elementName='c';
elementValue=2;
[domNode,subSubElementNode,~]=addElementXML(domNode,subElementNode,elementName,elementValue);

Defining an element attribute

attrName='id'; %Attrivute name
attrValue=1; %Attribute value
[domNode]=addAttributeXML(domNode,subElementNode,attrName,attrValue);

attrName='type'; %Attrivute name
attrValue='Ogden'; %Attribute value
[domNode]=addAttributeXML(domNode,subElementNode,attrName,attrValue);

View XML

xmlView(domNode);
