I don't really see a problem - a SOAP node knows that these are QNames and without schema knowledge it is not clear that it is safe to rename namespace prefixes anyway. In a way this seems like one of those general problems that are not specific to SOAP. Henrik >Oops, of course. Any other precedent? No API that I'm >familiar with (SAX, DOM, JDOM) supports it explicitly - you >have to piece it together by getting the list of namespace >prefixes. This would make some generic XML processing >impossible, such as performing a rename of namespace prefixes. > >I'd prefer one of Jean-Jacques' suggestions; > >http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2001Dec/0201.html
