I'm working on some code to determine the character encoding of an XML document being returned by a web server (an RSS feed in this particular case). Unfortunately, sometimes the web server lies and tells me that the document is UTF-8 when in fact it's not, or the boilerplate XML generation code on the server has <?xml encoding='UTF-8'?...

Recently, I discovered a bug where the pretty-printing from Builder::XmlMarkup produced an element full of whitespace text instead of an empty element as it should. For example, this code: xml.outertag do xml.list do # Some code whic...

How can I, given a w3c DOM (Java's default implementation, specifically) change the namespace of every element/attribute/node in that DOM? Efficiently, preferably. The DOM doesn't seem to have a setNamespaceURI method on it, which is inconvenient. I've tried XSL approaches, but they've failed to work in the JAXP transformers (although...
Is there a way to create an XSD that allows an attribute from a different namespace, but only if it's qualified? An example of an XML file that would be valid according to the schema is <d:document dx:size="a5" xmlns:d="http://example.com/documents" xmlns:dx="http://example.com/document-extensions"/> The schema should enfor...
Hi all: I am writing a native C/C++ .dll program which calls to .dll functions of many third party C/C++ libraries and returns a c/c++ structure array (SA) of 18 columns by 0-n lines.

We're using DataContractSerializer to serialize our data to XML. Recently we found a bug with how the string "\r\n" gets saved and read back - it was turned into just "\n". Apparently, what causes this is using an XmlWriter with Indent = true set: // public class Test { public string Line; } var serializer = new DataContractSerializer(...
I'm trying to obtain a list of information for the root element of an xml document using a transformation. The pieces I can't figure out are: How do I obtain the default namespace url?
