I am reading the following file in powershell.
<root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<nested1>
<level1 xsi:nil="true" />
<level2>2</level2>
</nested1>
<nested2>
<level1 xsi:nil="true" />
<level2>2</level2>
</nested2>
</root>
using...
[xml]$XmlDoc = get-content $XMLFile
I would like to set $XmlDoc.root.nested1.level2 so it has the attribute xsi:nil="true"
so the file appears as
<root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<nested1>
<level1 xsi:nil="true" />
<level2 xsi:nil="true" />
</nested1>
<nested2>
<level1 xsi:nil="true" />
<level2>2</level2>
</nested2>
</root>
Many Thanks for any advice offered.
Use
SetAttribute()
and provide the namespace URI.
