It allows you to remove nodes with a given name from an XML file. Please see printscreen attached for the method schema.


Given a XML like this where there's xsd info as well as actual data, the XML to record list extension throws errors. This extension was developed as a workarround for this issue but it can be used to remove any XML node by it's name.

For my particular usecase, to remove the "xsd:schema" node from the XML i just need to invoke the extension method passing "xds:schema" in the NodeName input parameter and it removes the full node and outputs an XML which is already parsable by the XML to record list extension.
