Hi!

While creating a new XMLSchemaElement, "ref" attribute is being created with an empty string.

Following C# code is being used to create an XML Schema:

C#

XmlSchema xsd = new XmlSchema();
 XmlSchemaElement xsdele = new XmlSchemaElement();
 xsdele.Name = "Feedbacks";
 xsdele.SchemaTypeName = new XmlQualifiedName("string", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
 xsd.Items.Add(xsdele);
 //Write the new schema to a file using XmlWriter....

The above code results in the following schema snippet for the above element:

HTML

<xs:element name="Feedbacks" ref="" xmlns:xs="#unknown" />

The code works on .NetCF2.0 (without creating "ref" attribute), but the "ref" attribute is being added when ported to .NetCF3.5.

Are we missing something here? Can you pl help?
Appreciate your time.

regards.

Use code block for code segments in question.

I think it's trying to tell you that for and xs:element element you need to specify either a ref type or a valid xmlns:xs attribute, and you've done neither.

The element is not of ref type. Also, the xmlns of "unknown" has been inserted by the code block (when I have not marked up the actual code). Actually, we can see the namespace being set explicitly in the C# code snippet.

Thanks for taking time.
