Remove unwanted (empty) xmlns attribute added by appendChild

Question

I have this code:

function setupProject($projectFile) {
  [xml]$root = Get-Content $projectFile;

  $project = $root.Project;

  $beforeBuild = $root.CreateE         


        

Answer 1

The namespace is an inherent part of the name of each node.Removing namespace means need to recreate the node again. Here is the code, where you can create the child node without the Namespace property.

[xml]$oXmlDocume = [xml] (Get-Content  D:\myXml.xml)
// Assuming Project is the parent node
$project = $oXMLDocument.Project
$childNode = $oXMLDocument.CreateElement("Child",$project.NamespaceURI)
$0XMLDocument.AppendChild($ChildNode)

If you need to create the subchild under your child node, then follow the same style.
