LI79725: XSD ATTRIBUTEFORMDEFAULT=QUALIFIED IS IGNORED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The xsd setting, attributeFormDefault="qualified", indicates
  that child attributes should be emitted with the namespaces of
  the defining schema.
  (The default attributeFormDefault="unqualified", indicates that
  child attributes should be emitted as unqualified (no
  namespace)).
  
  The attributeFormDefault="qualified" setting was being ignored
  by the parser.  The parser and API Connect now respect and emit
  the correct xml.
  
  Note that attributeFormDefault="qualified" is unusual.  Most
  WSDL/XSD best practice documents do not recommend this setting.
