I've been fiddling with this for over twenty minutes and my Google-foo is failing me.
Let's say I have an XML Document created in Java (org.w3c.dom.Document):
DocumentBuilderFactory docFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = docBuilder.newDocument();
Element rootElement = document.createElement("RootElement");
Element childElement = document.createElement("ChildElement");
childElement.appendChild(document.createTextNode("Child Text"));
rootElement.appendChild(childElement);
document.appendChild(rootElement);
String documentConvertedToString = "?" // <---- How?
How do I convert the document object into a text string?
