public final class NamespaceContexHelper extends Object implements org.jvnet.staxex.NamespaceContextEx
A namespace is declared on a namespace context. Namespace contexts are pushed on and popped off the namespace context stack.
A declared namespace will be in scope iff the context that it was declared on has not been popped off the stack.
When instantiated the namespace stack consists of the root namespace context, which contains, by default, the "xml" and "xmlns" declarations. Namespaces may be declarations may be declared on the root context. The root context cannot be popped but can be reset to contain just the "xml" and "xmlns" declarations.
Implementation note: determining the prefix from a namespace URI (or vice versa) is efficient when there are few namespace declarations i.e. what is considered to be the case for namespace declarations in 'average' XML documents. The look up of a namespace URI given a prefix is performed in O(n) time. The look up of a prefix given a namespace URI is performed in O(2n) time.
The implementation does not scale when there are many namespace declarations. TODO: Use a hash map when there are many namespace declarations.

namespaceURI
- the namespace URI to declare, may be null.public void declareNamespace(String prefix, String namespaceURI)
The namespace will be declared on the current namespace context.
The namespace can be removed by popping the current namespace context, or, if the declaration occured in the root context, by reseting the namespace context.
A default namespace can be declared by passing ""
as
the value of the prefix parameter.
A namespace may be undeclared by passing null
as the
value of the namespaceURI parameter.

- if the prefix is null.public void pushContext()
public void popContext()
Namespaces declared within the context (to be popped) will be removed and no longer be in scope.
public void resetContexts()
Pop all namespace contexts and reset the root context.
