[dom4j-user] Disappearing namespace

[Thomas Nichols]

I am processing a Schema document, and the default namespace is vanishing:
In:
====
<schema
   xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema'
   targetNamespace='http://www.w3.org/namespace/'
   xmlns:t='http://www.w3.org/namespace/'>

  <element name='ex1'>
   <complexType>
    <sequence>
     <element ref='t:x'/>
    </sequence>
   </complexType>
  </element>

  <element name='x'>
   <complexType mixed='true'>
   </complexType>
  </element>
</schema>

====



Out:
====
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<schema xmlns:t="http://www.w3.org/namespace/"; 
targetNamespace="http://www.w3.org/namespace/";>
   <element name="ex1">
     <complexType>
       <sequence>
         <element ref="t:x"/>
       </sequence>
     </complexType>
   </element>
   <element name="x">
     <complexType mixed="true"></complexType>
   </element>
</schema>
====

Code:
====
package test;

import java.io.*;
import org.dom4j.io.*;
import org.dom4j.*;
import org.dom4j.tree.*;

class ParseTest {
     static public void main (String args[]) {
        try {
            if (args.length == 0) {
                System.out.println ("Error: must specify XML file.");
            }   
            else {
                SAXReader reader = new SAXReader (false);    // No validation.
                Document doc = reader.read (args[0]);
                XMLWriter writer = new XMLWriter(new BufferedOutputStream (new 
FileOutputStream ("ParseTest.out")), OutputFormat.createPrettyPrint());
                writer.write (doc);
                writer.flush();
                // System.out.println (doc.asXML());
            }
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println ("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
        }
     }
}

Note that the following has vanished:
   xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema'

Am I doing something wrong here? Do I have to explicitly set the default 
namespace, and if so, how?

Thanks,
Thomas.
