Namespace declarations missing?

[Colin Paul Adams]

In the following code:

#include <xercesc/dom/DOM.hpp>
#include <xercesc/util/PlatformUtils.hpp>
#include <xercesc/util/XMLString.hpp>
#include <xercesc/framework/StdOutFormatTarget.hpp>
#include <iostream>

main ()
{

  //using namespace XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE;

  XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize ();
  XMLCh ls[100];
  XMLString::transcode ("LS",ls,99);
  
  DOMImplementation * impl = DOMImplementationRegistry::getDOMImplementation (ls);

  XMLCh namespace_uri[400];
  XMLString::transcode ("urn:colina.demon.co.uk:test-one",namespace_uri,199);

  XMLCh element_name[100];
  XMLString::transcode ("test:fred",element_name,199);

  DOMDocument * document = impl->createDocument(namespace_uri, element_name, 0);

  // only if the following code is executed will the output contain xmlns attributes:
  /*
  XMLCh xmlns_namespace_uri[400];
  XMLString::transcode ("http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/",xmlns_namespace_uri,199);

  XMLCh attribute_name[100];
  XMLString::transcode ("xmlns:test",attribute_name,99);

  DOMElement * document_element = document->getDocumentElement ();
  document_element->setAttributeNS (xmlns_namespace_uri, attribute_name, 
namespace_uri);
  */

  // now serialise

  DOMWriter * writer = static_cast<DOMImplementation*>(impl)->createDOMWriter ();
  XMLFormatTarget * my_target = new StdOutFormatTarget ();
  
  writer->writeNode (my_target, *document);
  
}

the DOMWriter does NOT write out any xmlns attributes, unless the
commented-out section is un-commented. Is this a bug in
createDocument/createElementNS, or am I missing something?

Same problem in both 2.1.0 and the nightly build ofNovember 28th.
