I am trying to write out the following element using XmlWriter
<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:gx="http://www.google.com/kml/ext/2.2" xmlns:kml="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
I've got the very first declaration done using
writer.WriteStartElement("kml", "http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2");
How can I add the remaining 3 declarations to the same element?
writer.WriteAttributeString("xmlns","gx", null, "http://www.google.com/kml/ext/2.2");
writer.WriteAttributeString("xmlns","kml", null, "http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2");
writer.WriteAttributeString("xmlns","atom", null, "http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom");
Got that from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cfche0ka(v=vs.100).aspx.
The answer of Ryan B is incomplete as the XML namespace is only written as attribute but not registered in the name table, so LookupPrefix will fail getting prefix of one of the XML namespaces, f.i. http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom. It will return null instead atom.
To write a namespace attribute and get namespace registered use
writer.WriteAttributeString("atom",
"http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/",
"http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom");
Use of namespace http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/registers also the prefix in name table.
The namespaces are simply attributes. Use the standards means of writing attributes for the element.
