I'm using VB 2008 and I'm trying to add a xmlns="mynamespace" attribute to an XDocument's root element.The XML document is created by a 3rd party, and I have loaded it into a VB XDocument object. As it comes, it has no namespaces. I have been working on a local copy and I added in a namespace in a text editor, so that I can use the XMLToSchema in VB to enable intellisense etc, as per the instructions in the Beth Massi vids at MSDN. Now the rest of the code works I want to open the live documents again. Without the namespace, my XML literals don't resolve.I've tried unsuccessfully to add in the XMLNS property to the root tag using a few methods, and the nearest I got was the following three code samples.
Dim myNS As XNamespace = "urn:nbf:namespacename"
myXML.Element("nameofrootelement").Add(myNS)
^^^^ The namespace was added as the value of the root element, not as an attribute.
XML.Root.Add(New XAttribute("xmlns", "name"))
^^^^ Generated the error: Run-time exception thrown : System.Xml.XmlException - The prefix '' cannot be redefined from '' to 'name' within the same start element tag.
but
XML.Root.Add(New XAttribute("test", "name"))
^^^^ works correctly. Presumably it doesn't like me manually trying to set a reserved attribute? This namespacing seems way too over complex from some of the Googling I've done.I thought to .ToString it, then modify, then .Parse it also, but I wanted a better solution so that it would help me understand it a little better! I did try this though, and as you rightly point out, it affects all the descendants too, so thus it still breaks.
I will be working with multiple XML feeds all produced by different third parties, and I think for simplicity I will be leaving out the namespacing entirely!My own custom parsing function rewrites the third party feeds into one uniformed document, which then gets processed by another routine. I'll be able to add a ns to that intermediate piece of XML which will help when coding the secondary function.
I need to read an xml document from a database record into an XDocument object in order for it to be deserialized. So that the deserialization will work, I need to apply a specific namespace to each of the level 1 elements. So XML looks a bit like this:
[Code]...
How do I prevent the blank/empty namespace being added to each child element of the element to which the required namespace has been applied?
I am building a tool that takes an XML document and replaces XML nodes with a different XML node using .ReplaceChild. This all works great. The nodes get changed to the proper nodes. Where I seem to be having an issue is that the new node is inserted with an xmlns="" attribute, which I am not specifying for it to do, nor do I want as an attribute. How can I stop the ReplaceChild from inserting this as an attribute, or am I going to have to remove the attribute after the node is replaced?
Dim imgSrcNode As XmlElement = xmlDoc.CreateElement("img") Dim imgSrcAttr As XmlAttribute = xmlDoc.CreateAttribute("src") imgSrcAttr.InnerText = "./art/" + imageName.Substring(0, imageName.LastIndexOf(".")) imgSrcNode.Attributes.Append(imgSrcAttr) mmlNode.ParentNode.ReplaceChild(imgSrcNode, mmlNode)
Resulting XML change: <img src="./art/equJI161298_1" xmlns="" />
XML change desired: <img src="./art/equJI161298_1" />
If a node belongs to a namespace, it's children by default belong to the same namespace. So there's no need to provide an xmlns attribute on each child, which is good. However. If I create two nodes like this:
I get an error when I try to build my project.'SSLAccessFiltercannot' be used as an attribute because it does not inherit from 'System.Attribute'. [code]
This class is located in the namespace Acme.Infrastructure.Interface.A class with the same name EventArgs exists in the System namespace.In another project in my solution I have a class Acme.BusinessModules.MyModule.MyClass.When attempting to use the EventArgs class I have to fully qualify the class name or the compiler thinks I am using the System.EventArgs class.My understanding of namespace resolution was that the compiler would first look for the class in the current namespace, and then its parents. It seems that the compiler checks in System before it checks in sibling namespaces. Is it correct that System is checked before the sibling? Or is this behaviour caused by other issues (Imports order?)?
I've spent the best part of the week learning about TCP/IP and sockets but it's really draining my enthusiasm for my project. The basics are simple enough and the MSDN examples are fine and I can put together a simple server/client easily now, but once I start getting into asynchronous connections, threading and all the other stuff, I'm getting bogged down and frustrated. I've followed a dozen tutorials and examples now and they're all too confusing and half of them simply don't work.
I think what's most frustrating is that I really don't wish to become an expert on sockets or TCP, which seems to be the advice on most forum replies. I really want to be getting on with my project which has ground to a halt since I started looking into this. Yes, I know the world isn't always that simple.
So, what I'm looking for is a 3rd party app or some working code that will let me set up a server and multiple clients. All I really want them to be able to do is to send strings to each other, without blocking the application. Really, that's it, just the ability to pass strings back and forth between server and client, preferably in as simple a format as possible - e.g SendMessage(Client,String).
I am trying to use some 3rd party web service for which i hv sample file which is writen in C# and same I am trying to rewrite in vb.net for implement till last line I hv understood and implemented , but I am not able to understand last line in this code so pls help me to understand the last line of this code how to write same line in VB.net
AgentWS = new AgentWebRef.AgentWebServiceService(); EventWS = new EventWebRef.EventServiceService(); //The client application will receive a unique SessionId from the Agent //Web Service upon issuing its first request. The application must
As I say, I've got an application which I'll refer to as "AppName" (note the upper case 'A' and 'N') which, for example, attempts to reference "My.Application.Info.ProductName". Adding a breakpoint and putting a QuickWatch on that call shows the error:
I am writing a small application that will display some info to my end user. I have another program that the end user will have open while running my appplication. What I am trying to do is have my application launch itself (and maintain positioning if other app location changes) and "tether" itself to the other application.Ideally the top left of my application would attach to the top right of the other application.I have tried for countless hours working with the GetWindowPos API but the values returned are either all zeros or it just doesn't work.I do a Try/Catch to see if the other app is running and I fetch the Handle of the process. This works fine. Then I try to get the positioning of this process and set my .Left property to the returned RECT's .Left property. no dice.This is Visual Basic 2005 ExpressOther application is a PuTTY window that is not a fullscreen app.
my program launches a 3rd party program with a few switches to update itself.Once these updates are complete I need to manually click save from the applications menu. This can be done via the keyboard (Alt Gr + M then Alt Gr + S)
The application will take several seconds to load at which point the application will open maximised and the save option will be enabled.
Does anyone know of a good 3rd party reference for Win32 API for .Net where VB.Net is the target language Most API references target C as the language of choice. Frankly, I hate C and all C like languages.
I am working with dev ex controls and on a menu bar item there isnt a property for setting the button to Visible or not Not Visible. Can you add properties like this to pre made controls? If so how would you do it?
Im trying to detect when numbers change in a 3rd party app and then capture them for crunching. I do recall something back in the days of vb5 that would list control info when the mouse hovered over it. Cant seem to find anything like it these days. Ive got window handles ok, just cant read the control data.
Working on a program that makes use of a third party API. That API can be found here:[URL]I'm a beginning/intermediate VB.Net developer, and have written other programs, but not using something like this. I suspect I'll need to create a Web.Request (Secure) object and 'POST' to the URL with a stream of XML text. That's the general idea, right? The actual URL is internal to our network and I have that information of course.
I'm still new to most of this but I seem to be finding that while you can load the Microsoft Reference Libraries at no charge, I'm told they are the slowest method to use.I have tested Gembox and only read about others. Is it worth the effort to deploy these 3rd party platforms, even if I'm working with small data sets, for the moment at least? Speed is one thing but when you're talking about 2 seconds vs 0.2 seconds, it's not worth $900 per seat.
Are there other 3rd party references which are Open Source, or no cost, etc...I would like to hear what the rest of us are doing on this?
Do i need to add a reference to a third party control(DLL) before i can use it.When i go to project->add refernece ,i select the control but it didn't becomeavailable in toolbox to use it.Do i need to install that control?I just placed it inwindows/system32 dir.
I use SelectNodes("//Party") to extract all the Party nodes. Then I have seperate processing for all the nodes that are not Party and are not children of Party (HostName, HostVersion, etc).
