public class PropertyName

This class represents a qualified property name. A name consists of three parts, viz. the local name, the prefix and the namespace. This corresponds to the information in an XML element that represents the property's name.

e.g. would result in a local name of "PreferredColour", a prefix of "ns0" and a namespace of "http://some.namespace". Although, in general, the prefix can be generated automatically, it is assumed that this process has already occurred and the prefix is valid part of the property name.
