Handling Namespaces in XML Tags

See more XML Examples

Demonstrates new features added in Chilkat v9.5.0.77 for helping with namespace prefixed tags. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    // First create some XML using namespace prefixed tags.

    // Create this XML. 
    // Use this online tool to generate the code from sample XML: 
    // Generate Code to Create XML

    // <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
    //    xmlns:scm="http://www.springcm.com/atlas/webservices/v201308/scm/">
    //    <soapenv:Header/>
    //    <soapenv:Body>
    //       <scm:AccountGetCurrent>
    //          <scm:token>123</scm:token>
    //       </scm:AccountGetCurrent>
    //    </soapenv:Body>
    // </soapenv:Envelope>
