  1. PODuplicate error when adding XAttribute to XElement
    text
    copied!<p>I've got a big xml file and I'm parsing an xpath to insert values in it. This is a part of the xml file where I'm inserting some values:</p> <pre><code>&lt;SERVICES&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIPS&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue01" xlink:to="toValue01" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue02" xlink:to="toValue02" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue03" xlink:to="toValue03" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue04" xlink:to="toValue04" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue05" xlink:to="toValue05" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue06" xlink:to="toValue06" /&gt; &lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue07" xlink:to="toValue07" /&gt; &lt;/RELATIONSHIPS&gt; &lt;SERVICES&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now, when I want to add more of these <code>RELATIONSHIP</code> nodes with same attributes but with different values (e.g. <code>&lt;RELATIONSHIP xlink:from="fromValue08" xlink:to="toValue08" /&gt;</code>) I always get a <code>Duplicate Attribute</code> error. This would be example of the xpath I'm parsing:</p> <pre><code>/SERVICES/RELATIONSHIPS/RELATIONSHIP[@xlink:from="fromValue08" and @xlink:to="toValue08"] </code></pre> <p>The parser is too big of a code to just paste here, and I'm sure it's working fine since it's inserting all nodes just fine, only this part here is giving me some trouble. I also checked the xpath with Altova and it works.</p> <p>My question is: Is adding a node with same attributes but with different values allowed in XML? And if yes, why is Visual Studio always throwing this error?</p>
