writer.writeComment("Product data");

writer.writeStartElement("Products");

for (Product p : products)

{

writer.writeStartElement("Product");

writer.writeAttribute("Code", plgetCode());

writer.writeStartelement("Description");

writer.writeCharacters(p.getDescription());

writer.writeEndelement();

writer.writeStartelement("Price");

double price = p.getPrice();

writer.writeCharacters(Double.toString(price));

writer.writeEndelement();

}

writer.writeEndElement();

writer.flush();
