I need to make this code read a .xml file. I created the .xml file in word and saved it as a .xml file. I put it in the corresponding NetBeans Project File but it keeps showing errors when I run it. Please help me to get this working. ??? 

 

This is the code I have so far:

 

package lab.pkg9.salesperson.bonus;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Scanner;

 

public class Lab9SalespersonBonus {

   /**
    * @param args the command line arguments
    * @throws java.io.IOException
    */
   
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
   {
       double sales;
       double totalSales = 0.0;
       double totalBonus = 0.0;
       double bonus;

try{
   //Open the file for reading Purpose
   FileReader fin = new FileReader("Salesperson.xml");

   //Scanner Class Instance
   Scanner Keyboard = new Scanner(fin);

   while (Keyboard.hasNext())
   {
       //Read the Sale from the File
       sales = Keyboard.nextDouble();
       totalSales = totalSales + sales;        //To get the total sales
       if(sales>=6000.00)
       {
           bonus = 0.05 * sales;           //to find bonus
           totalBonus = totalBonus + bonus;
       }
       
       else
       {
           bonus = 0.02 * sales;           //to find bonus
           totalBonus = totalBonus + bonus;
       }
   }
   //Close the file
   fin.close();
   //Print the total Sales and Bonus
   System.out.println("$" + String.format("%.2f",totalSales));
   System.out.println("$" + String.format("%.2f",totalBonus));
}

   //if the File is not found
   catch(FileNotFoundException fe)
   {
     System.out.println("FileNotFoundException : " + fe);
   }

   }
}

 

This is the .xml file content:

 

1
50000


2
60000


3
70000


4
80000


5
90000


6
100000


7
110000


8
120000


9
130000


10
140000

 

I know I am supposed to parse this but I can not figure out what do do to get it to work. Not sure how to parse.

 

Please help ??
