Oops I was wrong. elementFormDefault is only about locally defined
elements, while you are talking about root element.
1.) How can I get xml to be valid using <Configuration> rather than
<cfg:Configuration> when it loads? I'd rather use <Configuration> as it's
Basically there is no difference whether you are using prefixed
namespace or default namespace. Just make sure your schema defines
Configuration element in that namespace:
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:blah="Blah" targetNamespace="Blah">
<xs:element name="Configuration">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
then both
<Configuration xmlns="Blah"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="Blah foo.xsd">
<foo/>
</Configuration>
and
<blah:Configuration xmlns:blah="Blah"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="Blah foo.xsd">
<blah:foo/>
</blah:Configuration>
are valid.
Tell that to .Net! :P
All of the above are valid, and can load, with one exception...
<!--Sample.xml-->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Configuration xmlns="MCIS.Applications.Reports.Schema.Configurat ion">
<Report Path="crystalreports\Balance Sheet.rpt">
<ExportOptions FileNameFormat="Balance Sheet {0:MM-dd-yyyy HH.mm.ss tt}"
FileNameFormatValue="Date"
OutputFolder="pdfs"
OutputType="PortableDocFormat"
/>
</Report>
</Configuration>
It doesn't load, keeps giving me an error:
The element 'MCIS.Applications.Reports.Schema.Configuration:Co nfiguration' has
invalid child element 'MCIS.Applications.Reports.Schema.Configuration:Re port'.
Expected 'Report'. An error occurred at file:///C:/path/sample.xml, (4, 6).
Same things for ExportOptions and Report elements (the above message is repeated
a total of 3 times in the exception message).
The first part of the xsd file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xs:schema id="Configuration"
targetNamespace="MCIS.Applications.Reports.Schema. Configuration"
elementFormDefault="unqualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified"

<xs:element name="Configuration" msdata:IsDataSet="true">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element name="Report" type="Report" />
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:simpleType name="ExportTypes" id="ExportTypes">

<xs:enumeration value="HTML32" />

Hope this helps shed some more light ;)
