Maybe some of the characters need to be escaped in c#? Make sure that the string:
http://www.aaa.com/namespace/aa/bb/ (or whatever is your namespace) is the string you are actually producing. If the string is not 100% correct, then the namespace will be wrong and the query will return empty. -Danny -----Original Message----- From: general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com [mailto:general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com] On Behalf Of Mailing Lists Mail Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2012 3:32 PM To: MarkLogic Developer Discussion Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] Help with namespace Declaration in Marklogic Hi Danny, thanks for responding.. Both the queries run fine and return correct results in the M/L query Console with correct results.. its only thr c# that Query2 produces valid results but Query1 brings out empty result. > On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 11:19 PM, Danny Sokolsky <danny.sokol...@marklogic.com> wrote: > A couple of point here: > > * I recommend you trying to run each of these in Query Console to help you > understand what is going on. > * The way you have written the queries they will need to put the whole db in > memory.
