public class EndNamespace

extends Namespace

The Namespace class provides a foundation for MOE objects to store namespaces.

There are some real complications in dealing with namespaces in an event context, made only more difficult by the potential creation of partial trees. The SAX event startPrefixMapping() takes place before the startElement() call, and similarly endPrefixMapping() is reported after endElement().

SAX also provides options for reporting/not reporting the attributes which define namespaces. In MOE, when events are assembled, the namespaces will be associated with the elements containing the definitions.

I've defined the Namespace class to be something of a broken attribute, much like Namespace declarations in XML 1.0. The prefix of the attribute is fixed to xmlns, the localName defines the prefix defined by the namespace. The toString() method handles the xmlns/xmlns:prefix issues.

The namespace URI is stored as textual content, just as with attributes. This potentially supports some rather perverse things like the use of general entities in the attribute values used to define namespaces.

nsURI is fixed to http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/.

version 0.01 is the initial release and contains plenty of bogus placeholder functionality.
