XML Header Definition with XMLPort in 4.00

ngebhard

Hey everybody,

does anybody know if it's possible to influence the header of an XML-Document created by an XML-Port?

The usual export starts with the part:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>

For some reason we need this to be empty! Does anyone know if this information is passed as a parameter to the automation or if it's some kind of fixed?!

Thanks a lot.
Regards
Nicole

Not possible, as far as I'm aware.

That line is called the XML Declaration, and is part of the prolog in a well-formed XML document. The parsers I have worked with know how to handle it, either by validating the values in it or by simply ignoring it, so I am curious why you need to have this empty.

I seem to remember someone asking a similar question. Have you tried searching?
