[Simple-support] Using Simple with RSS feed

[Paul T. <pt...@xe...>]

I am trying to use Simple XML for handling RSS feeds and am currently
annotating the classes used to represent the RSS channel and items.

In the RSS feed I am trying to process one of the lines looks like this..

<atom:link href="http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/science_and_environment/rss.xml"
rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/>

>From what I have read I need to declare the namespace for this to work
as it also uses the link tag but I am not very clear on how to do this
and the documentation didn't help.

I have 3 classes, NewsFeed, Channel and AtomLink listed below with annotations.

@Root
@Namespace(reference="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/")
public class NewsFeed {

	@Attribute
	public String version;
	
	@Element
	@Namespace(reference="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom", prefix="xmlns")
  public Channel channel;

  public Channel getChannel() {
    return channel;
 }
}

@Root
@Namespace(reference="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom")
public class Channel {

	@Element
	public String title;
	@Element
	public String link;
	@Element
	public String description;
	@Element
	public String language;
	@Element
	public String lastBuildDate;
	@Element
	public String copyright;
	@Element
	public String ttl;
	@Element
	@Namespace(reference="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom")
	public AtomLink atomLink;
}


@Root
@Namespace(reference="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom")
public class AtomLink {

	@Element
	public String href;
	@Element
	public String rel;
	@Element
	public String type;
}


When I try this I get the error Element 'link' declared twice at line 13
If anyone can help with why this is happening I would be very grateful.

Thanks
Paul
