SolutionPackager adding and removing xmlns attribute

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

Hi there,

I've been noticing for some time now that when we unpack our solutions (we unpack them using spkl which downloads the solution and unpacks it using the SolutionPackager v9.1.0.49) the xmlns attribute is "randomly" being added or removed from the components XML. In this following example you can see how it's being added to a form:

Until now I haven't been able to found what's causing this, as it's not something which affects all developers in every unpack operation. Sometimes it can be solved by re-cloning the repository but this is really annoying, almost as annoying as to review a Pull Request full of these changes.

Have you seen this before?

Thanks!

    Hi Federico,

    Many thanks for the details provided.

    Does this happen randomly depending on the package used? Meaning, if you use a package for which the xml namespace was added and run it again through this automation, will the xml namespace be added again? Or is it random for the same package (sometimes added, sometimes not?)

    It would interesting to test just with the latest version of the Solution Packager to understand if by itself, it will cause the issue to occur.

    Thank you!
