in reply to XML::Twig and #default prefix

You got the map_xmlns reversed: it should be map_xmlns => { 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' => 'xsd', }.

I agree that it is easy to make that mistake though, I'll fix that in the next release, either through a warning, or by swapping the args if it looks like they might be reversed. Thanks.

    Hello,

    I reversed the mapping and I got ns_prefix to report the prefix that I expected, xsd, in this case. That's OK.

    What isn't OK is that namespace returns an empty string and not the namespace URL that I assigned in the mapping. Why?

    Thanks a lot for your rapid response.

      I get the proper result:

      /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use XML::Twig;


my $twig = XML::Twig->parse( map_xmlns => { 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XM
+LSchema' => 'xsd', }, \*DATA);

printf "\$twig->root->gi: %s\n", $twig->root->gi;
printf "\$twig->root->namespace: %s\n", $twig->root->namespace;

__DATA__
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><element name="alert"
+/></schema>

      gives me:

      $twig->root->gi: xsd:schema
$twig->root->namespace: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema

      Which version of XML::Twig are you using? I get the results above with XML::Twig 3.32, the latest CPAN release.

        I got the results with 3.30. I'll try again with 3.32 although it does not seem that you made any changes that should affect this behavior between 3.30 and 3.32.
