| /** |
| * <p>Interface for read only XML Namespace context processing.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>An XML Namespace has the properties:</p> |
| * <ul> |
| * <li>Namespace URI: |
| * Namespace name expressed as a URI to which the prefix is bound</li> |
| * <li>prefix: syntactically, this is the part of the attribute name |
| * following the <code>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE</code> |
| * ("xmlns") in the Namespace declaration</li> |
| * </ul> |
| * <p>example: |
| * <code><element xmlns:prefix="http://Namespace-name-URI"></code></p> |
| * |
| * <p>All <code>get*(*)</code> methods operate in the current scope |
| * for Namespace URI and prefix resolution.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>Note that a Namespace URI can be bound to |
| * <strong>multiple</strong> prefixes in the current scope. This can |
| * occur when multiple <code>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE</code> |
| * ("xmlns") Namespace declarations occur in the same Start-Tag and |
| * refer to the same Namespace URI. e.g.<br /> |
| * <pre> |
| * <element xmlns:prefix1="http://Namespace-name-URI" |
| * xmlns:prefix2="http://Namespace-name-URI"> |
| * </pre> |
| * This can also occur when the same Namespace URI is used in multiple |
| * <code>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE</code> ("xmlns") Namespace |
| * declarations in the logical parent element hierarchy. e.g.<br /> |
| * <pre> |
| * <parent xmlns:prefix1="http://Namespace-name-URI"> |
| * <child xmlns:prefix2="http://Namespace-name-URI"> |
| * ... |
| * </child> |
| * </parent> |
| * </pre></p> |
| * |
| * <p>A prefix can only be bound to a <strong>single</strong> |
| * Namespace URI in the current scope.</p> |
