xml attribute prefix

Posted on by Magicrevette 215
Hello,
 
I want to create in AL an xml document with a custom prefix attribute in the root tag, like this :
 
<root xsi:schemaLocation=/http://myschemaurl/>
...
</root>
 
How can I do that in a codeunit in AL ? I tried different methods on XmlElement variables, but couldn't have the above result.
 
Thank you.

    I'm not using xmlport to create my xml. I'm using a codeunit, with XmlDocument.Create and XmlElement.Create() methods. SO I can't use namespace prefix property in this case.
     
    With what you suggested me, I could have done something like this :
     
    <root XMLNS:prefix=/http://myschemaurl/>
    ...
    </root>
     
    But what I want is to set an attribute in my root tag something different from xmlns, like this :
     
    <root XSI:prefix=/http://myschemaurl/>
    ...
    </root>
     
    Since the attribute name is not 'XMLNS', it is not a namespace anymore, just an attribute.
     
    Any idea how i can do that in AL ?
     
    Thank you
