Method Detail

moveParserToNextTag

public static int moveParserToNextTag(org.kxml2.io.KXmlParser theParser)

This method, as the name implies, moves the parser to the next tag in the XML that the parser is parsing. It will keep getting the next element that the parser has to offer until one of three things happens: (1) it finds a start tag, (2) it finds an end tag, or (3) it finds the end of the document. The return value is the type that the KXmlParser you give it returns for its next() method---this is the type of element that the parser has found.
