Namespace (Node Property of All Schemas)

Applies to Nodes of Type

Record, Field Element, Field Attribute, Sequence Group, Choice Group, All Group, Attribute Group, Any Element, Any Attribute

Category

General

Allowed Values

Any valid URI.

Default Value

None.

XSD Persistence

As the value of the prefix on the element name from among the imported namespace prefixes, or as the namespace attribute of an any or anyAttribute element.

Remarks

You can examine this property in the Visual Studio Properties window when you select a node of an appropriate type (including a root Record node) in BizTalk Editor.

This property is read-only for all node types other than Any Element and Any Attribute.

When the Namespace property is blank, it means that the selected node is in the "blank" namespace. For example, when you define a schema with no value set for its Target Namespace property, all of the nodes in that schema are in the blank namespace.

This property represents a standard XSD construct. For additional information about the corresponding XSD construct, see XSD Resources on the Web.
