xml-dev - Re: SAX2: Namespace proposal

This looks very similar to what Ray had 
proposed a few days ago.

In this case, perhaps leave startElement alone:

  void startElement(String name, AttributeList atts);

This is more in the spirit with SAX, a low-level simple
interface; where the application programmer has to 
do much of the work.  To make things easy for the
application programmer:

package org.sax.helper;

class NamespaceDeclHandlerImpl implements NnamespaceDeclHandler 
{
  Stack stack;
  private class Pair { 
    String prefix; 
    String namespace; 
    public void Pair(String prefix, String namespace) {
      this.prefix=prefix; this.namespace=namespace;
    }
  };
  public void NamespaceDeclHandlerImpl() {
    stack = new Stack(); 
  }          
  void startNamespaceDecl(String prefix, String namespace) {
     stack.push(new Pair(prefix,namespace));
  }
  void endNamespaceDecl() {
     stack.pop();
  }
  String getNamespace(String name) {
    return namespaceFoundBySearchingStack;
  }
}
