Re: [basex-talk] db:create, namespaces not stripped when input is variable?

Fabrice already gave you the answer (thanks!). As this question has not been asked for the first time, I have updated our documentation [1].

Hope this helps, Christian

Hello Constantine,

IMHO parsing options only apply when there is actually a parsing phase.

I remember having the same problem with whitespace chopping.

Would you get expected result by serializing the xml before giving it to the db:create function ?

Best regards,

Fabrice

Hello all,

Any particular reason behind this observed behaviour? (Basex 8.3).

……………………………………………………..

[1]

……………………………………………………..

declare variable $test :=

<test xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ani/common" xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ani/ani">

ce:initialsM.S.</ce:initials>

</test>;

db:create('test', $test, 'blah', map {'stripns':true()})

……………………………………………………..

……………………………………………………..

db:open('test')/*

……………………………………………………..

[3]

……………………………………………………..

<test xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ani/ani" xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ani/common">

ce:initialsM.S.</ce:initials>

</test>

I would have expected the namespaces to be shredded …

Cheers,

Constantine
