How can i make a BufferedReader a inputstream, can i just cast it to a
input stream ?

Parse requires a inputstream or string ?

import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;

Documnet doc;
DocumentBuilder parser;
BufferedReader in = request.getReader();

doc = parser.parse(in);

casting doesn't work

InputStream in = (InputStream) request.getReader();

Any idea's ?

never mind found it :)

        BufferedReader in = request.getReader();
        while((input = in.readLine()) != null)
        {
            xmlText = xmlText + input;
            in.close();
        }

That seems quite suboptimal...
What kind of object is request?
Is there a getStream() instead of getReader()?

At the very worst, you can use InputSource instead of InputStream:

import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
....

builder.parse(new InputSource(in));
