    Description of the method

     

    Description: .namespace() method returns the default namespace (xmlns) attribute as a string. As this attribute is given in the root element, context of the rule must be the root as well.
    Available for: root element
    Parameters: -
    Return type: string

     

    Example

    Context: Message
    OCL: self.namespace() = 'http://www.XMLdation.com'
    Description: The example rule checks if the default namespace is 'http://www.XMLdation.com'.

     

    The XML snippet below would pass this check.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <Message xmlns="http://www.XMLdation.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http::xmldation.com extensions.xsd ">

        <NumberOfTransactions>1</NumberOfTransactions>
      </Header>
      <Transaction>
        <Id>TransactionId1</Id>
        <Amount>100</Amount>

        </Debtor>
        <Creditor>
          <Name>Creditor1</Name>
        </Creditor>
      </Transaction>
    </Message>

    The other snippet below however would not pass this check.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <Message xmlns="http://www.NOT-XMLdation.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

        <NumberOfTransactions>1</NumberOfTransactions>
      </Header>
      <Transaction>
        <Id>TransactionId1</Id>
        <Amount>100</Amount>
        <Debtor>
