Hi!
I have the following XML snippet:
<RoleDescriptor
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:fed="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsfed/federation/200706";
xsi:type="fed:SecurityTokenServiceType">
....
</RoleDescriptor>
This part after parsing with Elementtree gives me an Element instance
with the following properties:
> tree.tag
{urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:metadata}RoleDescriptor
> tree.keys()
['{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance}type']
> tree['{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance}type']
fed:SecurityTokenServiceType
And there is the problem, I've lost the coupling between the prefix
'fed' and the namespace
"http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsfed/federation/200706";.
Is there any way I can get at the prefix <-> namespace mapping from an
Element instance ?
I've read the documentation I can find and there is nothing that tells
me how to get at the mapping.
If I print the Element instance the prefix 'fed' is replace by 'ns0' or
something like that.
Definitely something that has no connection to the original 'fed'.
