http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12114 Redirect does not output xmlns declaration Summary: Redirect does not output xmlns declaration Product: XalanJ2 Version: 2.4Dx Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: org.apache.xalan.lib.Redirect AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Namespace nodes are not output when using redirection. That is, when the generated root element is redirected, it receives the correct xmlns declaration. But when another element is redirected to a new file (becoming that file's root element), then that element does not get its necessary namespace nodes. Example: [source] <root xmlns="foo"><test/></root> [xsl] <xsl:template match="test"> <redirect:write file="newfile.xml"> <xsl:copy/> </redirect:write> </xsl:template> [actual newfile.xml] <?xml ...> <test/> [expected newfile.xml] <?xml ...> <test xmlns="foo"/> I set this bug to Major severity because the resulting file is not XML namespace compliant and the workaround (see below) is not acceptable by everyone. Look also in the Xalan-J-user mailing list for a thread with title "redirect does not output xmlns declaration".
