Hi Mike, Would it be possible to get this fixed by the next release of Daffodil?

It's a bug if it does that. It's not supposed to be hard-coded, and isn't most places. We do have some tests that don't use "dfdl" as the prefix, but obviously there is at least one rigidity where something isn't respecting namespace. ________________________________ From: Costello, Roger L. <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Tuesday, April 7, 2020 3:11 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Daffodil hardcoded the namespace prefix? Hi Folks, Instead of using "dfdl" as the namespace prefix, I used "x" xmlns:x="http://www.ogf.org/dfdl/dfdl-1.0/"; And I changed all namespace qualifiers from "dfdl:" to "x:" Per the XML namespace specification this is perfectly legal. However, when I ran my DFDL schema I got this error: [error] Schema Definition Error: Invalid dfdl annotation found: x:format Huh? Did Daffodil hardcode the namespace prefix? That is, if any namespace prefix other than "dfdl" is used in a DFDL schema, Daffodil fails? /Roger
