hello all,
i would like to detach Elements from their parent and add them to a new element using jdom. i do it like below, but i get an org.jdom.IllegalAddException: The Content already has an existing parent "OLD_ROOT_NAME".

can anyone give me a hint whats the problem here? do i have to synchronize the detach() method?

thank you!

You call detach() on a bunch of nodes. Then you call addContent with a completely different node, one that you apparently never called detach on.

sorry, that is just an typing error. i add the whole list to the newRoot, so it should be:

//add elements to new root
newRoot.addContent(children);
