Interface NameSpace
All Known Implementing Classes:
Default­Name­Space
@UML(identifier="NameSpace",
specification=ISO_19103)
public interface NameSpace
A domain in which names given by character strings are defined.
Every Generic­Name must be valid in a namespace. For a Local­Name, this means
that the name must exist in the current namespace. For a Scoped­Name, this means:
The head of a Scoped­Name must be a Local­Name
which is valid in this namespace.
The tail must either be:
a Local­Name which is valid in the Name­Space associated with the head, or
another Scoped­Name with these same constraints on head and tail, applied to
the Name­Space associated with the head.

isGlobal
@UML(identifier="isGlobal",
obligation=MANDATORY,
specification=ISO_19103)
boolean isGlobal()
Indicates whether this namespace is a "top level" namespace.  Global, or top-level
namespaces are not contained within another namespace.  There is no namespace called
"global" or "root" which contains all of the top-level namespaces.  Hence, this flag
indicates whether the namespace has a parent.
Returns:
true if this namespace has no parent.
name

obligation=MANDATORY,

GenericName name()
Represents the identifier of this namespace. If the global attribute is
true, indicating that this is a top level Name­Space, then the name shall be a
local name. If false, name shall be a fully-qualified name where
name.scope().is­Global() == true.
Returns:
The identifier of this namespace.
