[xml] ignore undefined namespaces during parsing

[mini thomas <mini_mol_thomas yahoo com>]

version used libxml2-2.7.3

platform - windows XP

 

I am parsing the following  string

 

std::string s2 = "<root><nmspace:test1 hh=\"yyy\"></root>"

 xmlDocPtr myDoc =  xmlParseDoc((const unsigned char*)s2.c_str());

 

I get the error "namespace error .. namespace prefix nmspace on test1 is not declared"

 

Is it possible to suppress this error ? 

 

 When I  call xmlNodeDump(root_node)  I get the following result

<root><test1 hh="yyy"></root>. Why is the namespace removed ? Is there any when to serialize the DOM to a string with the namespace ?

 

Thanks

Mini
