XPath即为XML路径语言（XML Path Language），它是一种用来确定XML文档中某部分位置的语言。XPath基于XML的树状结构，提供在数据结构树中找寻节点的能力。起初 XPath 的提出的初衷是将其作为一个通用的、介于XPointer与XSL间的语法模型。但是 XPath 很快的被开发者采用来当作小型查询语言。

// 解析文件，生成document对象

// 生成XPath对象

// 获取节点值
String webTitle = (String) xpath.evaluate(

XPathConstants.STRING);
System.out.println(webTitle);
System.out.println("===========================================================");
// 获取节点属性值
String webTitleLang = (String) xpath.evaluate(
"/bookstore/book[@category='WEB']/title/@lang", document,
XPathConstants.STRING);
System.out.println(webTitleLang);
System.out.println("===========================================================");
// 获取节点对象
Node bookWeb = (Node) xpath.evaluate(
"/bookstore/book[@category='WEB']", document,
XPathConstants.NODE);
System.out.println(bookWeb.getNodeName());
System.out.println("===========================================================");
// 获取节点集合
NodeList books = (NodeList) xpath.evaluate("/bookstore/book", document,
XPathConstants.NODESET);
for (int i = 0; i < books.getLength(); i++) {
Node book = books.item(i);
System.out.println(xpath.evaluate("@category", book,
XPathConstants.STRING));
}
System.out.println("===========================================================");
}
