I think you forgot to add the namespace and prefix for the root element
in your call to create(). I.e., you have:

create ("elOne");

while you need:

create ("elOne",
        "http://www.blah.com/MySchema",
        "tns");

Also note that you don't need to manually associate the "tns" prefix with
"http://www.blah.com/MySchema" using setAttributeNS since this namespace
will be handled automatically.

It is added automatically by the Xerces-C++ createDocument function.
