Querying and adding element to XML with comments [message #1381244]

I have attached the xml file that i am trying to query and then add a element "association" with a new id and other new attribute.

How do I get the root node which is "component-definition" in this case. XML.root gives me comment node. and t_component-definition gives me a error saying "EXCEPTION: Undefined variable, type or model : 'definition' not defined".

How do I get the root node(component-definition) here. ?

It's a little unclear what you expect here. This doesn't look like a
question about the Eclipse IDE, workbench or how to use those. It looks
a lot like a question about XML. If so, you'd be much better served
asking it on stackoverflow.com.
