Attributes

Remarks

Get all prefixes bound to a Namespace URI in the current scope.

An Iterator over String elements is returned in an arbitrary, <strong>implementation dependent</strong>, order.

<strong>The Iterator is <em>not</em> modifiable. e.g. the remove() method will throw UnsupportedOperationException.</strong>

When requesting prefixes by Namespace URI, the following table describes the returned prefixes value for all Namespace URI values:

<table border="2" rules="all" cellpadding="4"> <thead> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2"> getPrefixes(namespaceURI) return value for specified Namespace URIs</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Namespace URI parameter</td> <td>prefixes value returned</td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>bound Namespace URI, including the &lt;default Namespace URI&gt;</td> <td>Iterator over prefixes bound to Namespace URI in the current scope in an arbitrary, <strong>implementation dependent</strong>, order</td> </tr> <tr> <td>unbound Namespace URI</td> <td>empty Iterator</td> </tr> <tr> <td>XMLConstants.XML_NS_URI ("http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace")</td> <td>Iterator with one element set to XMLConstants.XML_NS_PREFIX ("xml")</td> </tr> <tr> <td>XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE_NS_URI ("http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/")</td> <td>Iterator with one element set to XMLConstants.XMLNS_ATTRIBUTE ("xmlns")</td> </tr> <tr> <td>null</td> <td>IllegalArgumentException is thrown</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
