copied!<p>In my application i parse a xml from which I get a list of items (hotels and restaurants) that i put into array "listElements"; I need to get from this array, another array that will contain only the particular elements (hotels only) and then I need to get from this array, three array that will contain hotels according to stars(array5starhotel, array4starhotel,array3starhotel). How can do this? This is the code I used for parsing(I used TBXML):</p> <pre><code>- (void)loadCategories { // instantiate an array to hold categories objects listCategories = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:100]; tbxml = [[TBXML tbxmlWithXMLFile:@"Molise.xml"] retain]; // Obtain root element TBXMLElement * root = tbxml.rootXMLElement; // if an author element was found if (root) { //search for the first category element within the root element's children TBXMLElement * category = [TBXML childElementNamed:@"category" parentElement:root]; // if a category element was found while (category != nil) { // instantiate a category object Category * aCategory = [[Category alloc] init]; // get the name attribute from the category element aCategory.name = [TBXML valueOfAttributeNamed:@"name" forElement:category]; // search the category's child elements for a "element" element TBXMLElement * element = [TBXML childElementNamed:@"element" parentElement:category]; // if a "element" element was found while (element != nil) { // instantiate a "element" object Element * aElement = [[Element alloc] init]; // extract the attributes from the "element" element aElement.title = [TBXML valueOfAttributeNamed:@"title" forElement:element]; aElement.address = [TBXML valueOfAttributeNamed:@"address" forElement:element]; aElement.stars =[TBXML valueOfAttributeNamed:@"stars" forElement:element]; // add the "element" object to the category's listElements array and release the resource [aCategory.listElements addObject:aElement]; [aElement release]; // find the next sibling element named "element" element = [TBXML nextSiblingNamed:@"element" searchFromElement:element]; } // add our category object to the listCategories array and release the resource [listaCategories addObject:aCategory]; [aCategory release]; // find the next sibling element named "category" category = [TBXML nextSiblingNamed:@"category" searchFromElement:category]; } [tbxml release]; } </code></pre>
