Hi,

sample code is,

<Root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Version="V1.0"></Root>

In this I need to remove xsd namespace.

Required:

<Root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"  Version="V1.0"></Root>

I am using serialization.

How to achieve this in c# ?

Thanks

What I have tried:

 XmlSerializerNamespaces ns = new XmlSerializerNamespaces();
//                ns.Add("xsd", "");
//                ns.Add("", "");

If I give prefix as empty , xsd and xsi both namespaces are gone.
if I give prefix as xsd, it throws exception

Just do a string.Replace on the raw xml and replace the text you want gone with "". However I suspect you are trying to solve the wrong problem and trying to get rid of that text rather than getting your code to work with it.

You can simple split the XML string by blank and remove the part with "xmlns:xsd":

C#

string strXml = "<Root xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' Version='V1.0'></Root>";
string[] ar = strXml.Split(' ');
string strResult = string.Empty;
foreach (string str in ar)
{
   if (!str.Contains("xmlns:xsd"))
       strResult  += str + " ";
}
