How can I write to XML, but using it like ini file.

What I mean : when writting to XML - if a node doesn't exists (or the XML
doesn't exists) : write it automatically ?
Also - when reading from XML : get a default value, if value not exists ?

Thanks

XMLEncoder/XMLDecoder does this for any Java Object
that is (effectively) a bean, a class that provides getters
and setters for the public attributes, possibly default
values, and a 'no args' constructor.

Searching the group for 'XMLEncoder' or similar for code
samples.

But it is not 'XMLDom', so the question comes back to.

What is 'X'?

XMLEncoder/XMLDecoder read the XML sequentially
(XMLDecoder.readObject()).
What I need is reading the XML by element name, and not at the order that
the components appear on screen.

.... should I use xmldom with xmlpath for that, or it may be simplier ?

Thanks
