package javax.xml.soap;
/** A representation of an XML name. This interface provides methods for
getting the local and namespace-qualified names and also for getting the
prefix associated with the namespace for the name. It is also possible to get
the URI of the namespace.
The following is an example of a namespace declaration in an element.
<wombat:GetLastTradePrice xmlns:wombat="http://www.wombat.org/trader">
("xmlns" stands for "XML namespace".) The following shows what the methods in
the Name interface will return.
getQualifiedName will return "prefix:LocalName" = "WOMBAT:GetLastTradePrice"
getURI will return "http://www.wombat.org/trader"
getLocalName will return "GetLastTracePrice"
getPrefix will return "WOMBAT"
XML namespaces are used to disambiguate SOAP identifiers from
application-specific identifiers.
Name objects are created using the method SOAPEnvelope.createName, which has
two versions. One method creates Name objects with a local name, a namespace
prefix, and a namespace URI. and the second creates Name objects with just a
local name. The following line of code, in which se is a SOAPEnvelope object,
creates a new Name object with all three.
Name name = se.createName("GetLastTradePrice", "WOMBAT",
"http://www.wombat.org/trader");
The following line of code gives an example of how a Name object can be used.
The variable element is a SOAPElement object. This code creates a new
SOAPElement object with the given name and adds it to element.
element.addChildElement(name);
