Summary: XmlSlurper unprefixed attributes should not be in the default namespace Key: GROOVY-7808 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7808 Project: Groovy Issue Type: Bug Components: XML Processing Affects Versions: 2.4.6 Reporter: John Wagenleitner Priority: Minor According to https://www.w3.org/TR/xml-names/#defaulting the namespace name for an unprefixed attribute name always has no value. Currently when using XmlSlurper unprefixed attributes have the default namespace. {code} def xml = ''' <root xmlns="urn:test"> <foo id="7">bar</foo> </root> ''' def root = new XmlSlurper(false, true).parseText(xml).declareNamespace(ns: 'urn:test') assert root.foo[0].namespaceURI() == 'urn:test' assert root.'ns:foo'.text() == 'bar' assert root.foo.@id == '7' assert root.foo.'@ns:id' == '' // fails returns 7 assert root.foo.@id[0].namespaceURI() == '' // fails returns 'urn:test' {code} Based on the specs I believe the following asserts in the [XmlSlurperTest|https://github.com/apache/groovy/blob/c04e4df42ca3ed25570acc730d87807012c39887/subprojects/groovy-xml/src/test/groovy/groovy/util/XmlSlurperTest.groovy#L142-L143] are incorrect. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
