[geotk] CSW client : unmarshalling issue

[Damiano ALBANI]

Hello,

I was testing the Insert/Update/Delete transactions API of the CSW 
client and I've had an issue related to XML namespaces.
Given the following code:

     PropertyIsEqualToType propertyIsEqualTo =
         new PropertyIsEqualToType(new LiteralType(identifier),
                                   new PropertyNameType(new 
QName("http://www.opengis.net/cat/csw/apiso/1.0", "Identifier")),
                                   null);

     FilterType filter = new FilterType(propertyIsEqualTo);

     QueryConstraintType queryConstraint = new QueryConstraintType();
     queryConstraint.setVersion("1.1.0");
     queryConstraint.setFilter(filter);

     DeleteType delete = new DeleteType();
     delete.setConstraint(queryConstraint);

     request = cswServer.createTransaction();
     request.setDelete(delete);

The XML produced by Geotoolkit doesn't contain any reference to the 
namespace, be it the prefix or the NS declaration on the root element :

<csw:Delete>
<csw:Constraint version="1.1.0">
<ogc:Filter>
<ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
<ogc:PropertyName>Identifier</ogc:PropertyName>
<ogc:Literal>7d26184c-3cf8-4475-991f-3b8a454d5138</ogc:Literal>
</ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
</ogc:Filter>
</csw:Constraint>
</csw:Delete>

I've put the full XML dump on <http://pastebin.com/uQrDq9my>.
As you can see, many namespaces are declared (even if not used ?!) but 
not the AP ISO one.

That missing NS declaration causes some problems with deegree3 CSW 
server -- though, strangely enough, deegree3 is not bothered by the 
missing NS in an Update request, instead of a Delete one...

Thanks,
