/**
 * @class ACEXML_Attributes
 *
 * @brief ACEXML_Attributes defines a collection of attributes of an XML element.
 *
 * This is an abstract class (interface in Java) that defines
 * the API for accessing attributes of an XML entity.
 *
 * This interface allows access to a list of attributes in three different ways:
 *
 * - by attribute index;
 * - by Namespace-qualified name; or
 * - by qualified (prefixed) name.
 *
 * The list will not contain attributes that were declared #IMPLIED
 * but not specified in the start tag. It will also not contain
 * attributes used as Namespace declarations (xmlns*) unless the
 * http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes feature is set to
 * true (it is false by default).
 *
 * If the namespace-prefixes feature (see above) is false, access by
 * qualified name may not be available; if the
 * http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces feature is false, access by
 * Namespace-qualified names may not be available.
 *
 * This interface replaces the now-deprecated SAX1 AttributeList
 * interface, which does not contain Namespace support. In addition to
 * Namespace support, it adds the getIndex methods (below).
 *
 * The order of attributes in the list is unspecified, and will vary
 * from implementation to implementation.
