parsing the XML file

[gdczinan]

Hi, All:

I am quite new to the XML and have the following problem:

I have the sample xml to read.

<lr:LogRecordBody>
     <lr:EventID>9</lr:EventID>
      <lr:EventSubType scope="http://www.smpte-ra.org/430-5/2007/SecurityLog/#EventTypes">CPLCheck</lr:EventSubType>          
      <lr:contentId>urn:uuid:4c4d6f56-6734-4f37-94a5-fb93cce15128</lr:contentId>
       <lr:Parameters>
             <dcml:Parameter>
                   <dcml:Name>SignerID</dcml:Name>
               <dcml:Value xsi:type="ds:DigestValueType">BYWKLV0P9zwzo52Mw0ieHlj/9k8=</dcml:Value>
             </dcml:Parameter>
        </lr:Parameters>
</lr:LogRecordBody>

when the program read back the above log, it has the name space associated with it

<lr:LogRecordBody [I]xmlns:lr="funny">[/I]
        <lr:EventID>9</lr:EventID>
        <lr:EventSubType scope="http://www.smpte-ra.org/430-5/2007/SecurityLog/#EventTypes">CPLCheck</lr:EventSubType><lr:contentId>urn:uuid:4c4d6f56-6734-4f37-94a5-fb93cce15128</lr:contentId>
         <lr:Parameters>
                 <dcml:Parameter xmlns:dcml="http://www.smpte-ra.org/schemas/433/2008/dcmlTypes"><lr:LogRecordBody xmlns:lr="funny"><lr:EventID>9</lr:EventID><lr:EventSubType scope="http://www.smpte-ra.org/430-5/2007/SecurityLog/#EventTypes">CPLCheck</lr:EventSubType><lr:contentId>urn:uuid:4c4d6f56-6734-4f37-94a5-fb93cce15128</lr:contentId><lr:Parameters><dcml:Parameter xmlns:dcml="http://www.smpte-ra.org/schemas/433/2008/dcmlTypes"><dcml:Name>SignerID</dcml:Name><dcml:Value xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="ds:DigestValueType">BYWKLV0P9zwzo52Mw0ieHlj/9k8=</dcml:Value></dcml:Parameter></lr:Parameters></lr:LogRecordBody>
                       <dcml:Name>SignerID</dcml:Name>
                        <dcml:Value xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="ds:DigestValueType">BYWKLV0P9zwzo52Mw0ieHlj/9k8=</dcml:Value>
                </dcml:Parameter>
              </lr:Parameters>
          </lr:LogRecordBody>

what attribute to set for the XercesDOMParser so that the namespace is not automatically append while parsing?

[jkmyoung]

I don't think it works like that.

Can you change either:
1. Your input data to not have this namespace, or
2. The code that handles this output?

Further,
3. is there any reason you're using a DOM Parser to get this xml info?
4. Do you want to remove all namespaces (including dmcl), or just the main one?

I have to use the namespace...now checking the Xerces source code to see what happens
