Here's code if you want it. Lemme know if I botched something. /** *Sets the namespace of the element to the given namespace */ public static void setNamespace(Element elem, Namespace ns){ elem.setQName( QName.get( elem.getName(), ns, elem.getQualifiedName() ) ); } /** *Recursively removes the namespace of the element and all its children: sets to Namespace.NO_NAMESPACE */ public static void removeNamespaces(Element elem){ setNamespaces(elem, Namespace.NO_NAMESPACE); }
/** *Recursively removes the namespace of the list and all its children: sets to Namespace.NO_NAMESPACE */ public static void removeNamespaces(List l){ setNamespaces(l, Namespace.NO_NAMESPACE); } /** *Recursively sets the namespace of the element and all its children. */ public static void setNamespaces(Element elem, Namespace ns){ setNamespace(elem, ns); setNamespaces(elem.content(), ns); } /** *Recursively sets the namespace of the List and all children if the current namespace is match */ public static void setNamespaces(List l, Namespace ns){ Node n = null; for(int i=0; i<l.size(); i++){ n = (Node)l.get(i); if(n.getNodeType() == Node.ATTRIBUTE_NODE) ( (Attribute)n ).setNamespace(ns); if(n.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) setNamespaces( (Element)n, ns ); } } Naveen Murthy wrote: > > hello Edwin, > > in the older versions of dom4j, > > we could use --> > Doc.getRootElement().addAttribute("xmlns","http://www.w3.org/2001/06/grammar"); > > and this would make "http://www.w3.org/2001/06/grammar" as the DEFAULT > namespace for > the whole doc (whichwould apply to allthe child elemnts of the root.) > > Wondering if same can be somehow done for dom4j.1.6. > > > Herez an example which i have in my appln ( frm older dom4j). > all child elements are in the namespace > ="http://vmw.test.com/eventNotification/v1/xsd" > .
