Soap XML Unmarshal TagName(s) which contain Colons

[YardVox]

Facing a requirement to deal with Soap and xml tag names containing Colons.

(see linked program below ) Go pkg Unmarshal errors when

the syntax  `xml:"soap:Envelope"` is seen.

Is there alternate syntax/workaround to get Unmarshal process xml tag names containing colons

type Envelope struct {

        XMLName  xml.Name `xml:"soap:Envelope"`

//      XMLName  xml.Name `xml:"soapEnvelope"`

        Soap     *SoapBody

}

Did you try to use `xml:"Envelope"` ?

Dmytro,

Thanks for your reponse.

Tried your suggestion after which I see the Envelope but the pointer to the soapBody is nil.

So in addition,  I tried your same idea on SoapBody and still the pointer to the soapBody is nil.

What am I missing other than json?

YardVox,

I think this willl help you.

Dmytro,

I found a wonderful library

 "github.com/jteeuwen/xmlx"

That handles Soap and solves my application problem.

I will attempt, when time permits you learn why this solution works and my Unmarshal attempt did not.

Dmytro,

I reviewed your working code against my non-working code and found both my syntax and SoapConcepts error.

You were telling me to look at the "right side only" of the  soap prefix:postfix pair.

My coding now functions.  Thanks for all your time/efforts.

For what it's worth, that's not valid XML you're passing into the function. "soap:" is a name space prefix, and the soap name space has not been defined at the place where it is used. If it had been defined, such as with a tag defining an attribute xmlns:soap="http://some/url/", then you could use `xml:"http://some/url/ Envelope"` to say that you are trying to match the Envelope tag, and only the one in the soap name space.

Russ,

Does this code valid?

Russ, Dmyto,

I did leave out client stuff. The code below include sanitized xml stuff Russ said I was missing

coupled with Dmyto guidance on how to handle soap xml.

This code runs; Whether it is proper code following proper standards ... I do not know.

What you have is fine. If you needed to distinguish soap:Envelope from some other kind of Envelope, you'd want to qualify the tag with the URL identifying the name space: http://play.golang.org/p/17RT8VuCdu.

I tried to parse this example from W3CSchools and got the error: expected element <table> in name space http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/ but have http://www.w3schools.com/furniture

So it looks like Unmarshal can't handle  tags with the same name even if they are in different namespaces.

xml:

<root xmlns:h="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/" xmlns:f="http://www.w3schools.com/furniture">

<h:table>

  <h:tr>

    <h:td>Apples</h:td>

    <h:td>Bananas</h:td>

  </h:tr>

</h:table>

<f:table>

  <f:name>African Coffee Table</f:name>

  <f:width>80</f:width>

  <f:length>120</f:length>

</f:table>

</root>
