Details
When I create an XML element in no namespace and then call setNamespace on it
the method namespace() returns that namespace but the method
namespaceDeclarations() returns an empty array.
I think the result of namespaceDeclarations() should reflect the added namespace
so I file this bug. Rhino shows the added namespace with namespaceDeclarations().
Test case:
function testNamespaces (xml) {
var result = '';
result += 'Checking ' + xml.toXMLString() + ' : \r\n';
result += '.namespace(): ' + xml.namespace() + '\r\n';
result += '.namespaceDeclarations().length: ' +
xml.namespaceDeclarations().length + '\r\n';
return result;
}
var xhtml1NS = new Namespace('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml');
var xhtml = <html />;
xhtml.setNamespace(xhtml1NS);
var result = testNamespaces(xhtml);
if (typeof alert == 'function') {
alert(result);
}
else if (typeof print == 'function') {
print(result);
}
Result with Spidermonkey:
Checking <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"/> :
.namespace(): http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml
.namespaceDeclarations().length: 0
Result with Rhino:
Checking <xht:html xmlns:xht="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"/> :
.namespace(): http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml
.namespaceDeclarations().length: 1

The ECMA-357 spec clearly does *not* [[AddInScopeNamespace]] or any similar
thing for XML.prototype.setNamespace (13.4.4.36). Is this really a bug in
SpiderMonkey, or in ECMA-357, or in Rhino?
If the current spec is right, then it's a bug in Rhino.
If the spec is wrong, we need an erratum (collected in bug 246441 via
attachment), and we need a spec-fix. In particular, should the namespace have a
prefix auto-generated for it?

I'm convinced this is a Rhino bug. SpiderMonkey follows the spec, which makes
more sense if you consider that namespace() describes something that may not
have been declared, while namespaceDeclarations() returns what was declared, and
what was added by addNamespace.
Someone please file a Rhino bug.
