If you create the name instances (and appropriate hash and equality methods that says that names are equal iff both of their parts are equal), with both parts filled in when the object is instantiated, and if you disallow all further destrucite changes, I think you should be pretty safe. If you do this, you could also use some kind of (weak) hash table from strings "{ns}local" to name instances, in order to share name instances where possible. I'm no java expert, but in general I think it sounds very reasonable to use some object oriented model for the particular "name"-abstraction defined by XML and the namespaces spec. /Niels xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
