  30  * The container for the SOAPHeader and SOAPBody portions of a
  31  * <code>SOAPPart</code> object. By default, a <code>SOAPMessage</code>
  32  * object is created with a <code>SOAPPart</code> object that has a
  33  * <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object. The <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object
  34  * by default has an empty <code>SOAPBody</code> object and an empty
  35  * <code>SOAPHeader</code> object.  The <code>SOAPBody</code> object is
  36  * required, and the <code>SOAPHeader</code> object, though
  37  * optional, is used in the majority of cases. If the
  38  * <code>SOAPHeader</code> object is not needed, it can be deleted,
  39  * which is shown later.
  40  * <P>
  41  * A client can access the <code>SOAPHeader</code> and <code>SOAPBody</code>
  42  * objects by calling the methods <code>SOAPEnvelope.getHeader</code> and
  43  * <code>SOAPEnvelope.getBody</code>. The
  44  * following  lines of code use these two methods after starting with
  45  * the <code>SOAPMessage</code>
  46  * object <i>message</i> to get the <code>SOAPPart</code> object <i>sp</i>,
  47  * which is then used to get the <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object <i>se</i>.
  48  *
  49  * <PRE>
  50  *     SOAPPart sp = message.getSOAPPart();
  51  *     SOAPEnvelope se = sp.getEnvelope();
  52  *     SOAPHeader sh = se.getHeader();
  53  *     SOAPBody sb = se.getBody();
  54  * </PRE>
  55  * <P>
  56  * It is possible to change the body or header of a <code>SOAPEnvelope</code>
  57  * object by retrieving the current one, deleting it, and then adding
  58  * a new body or header. The <code>javax.xml.soap.Node</code> method
  59  * <code>deleteNode</code> deletes the XML element (node) on which it is
  60  * called.  For example, the following line of code deletes the
  61  * <code>SOAPBody</code> object that is retrieved by the method <code>getBody</code>.
  62  * <PRE>
  63  *      se.getBody().detachNode();
  64  * </PRE>
  65  * To create a <code>SOAPHeader</code> object to replace the one that was removed,
  66  * a client uses
  67  * the method <code>SOAPEnvelope.addHeader</code>, which creates a new header and
  68  * adds it to the <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object. Similarly, the method
  69  * <code>addBody</code> creates a new <code>SOAPBody</code> object and adds
  70  * it to the <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object. The following code fragment
  71  * retrieves the current header, removes it, and adds a new one. Then
  72  * it retrieves the current body, removes it, and adds a new one.
  73  *
  74  * <PRE>
  75  *     SOAPPart sp = message.getSOAPPart();
  76  *     SOAPEnvelope se = sp.getEnvelope();
  77  *     se.getHeader().detachNode();
  78  *     SOAPHeader sh = se.addHeader();
  79  *     se.getBody().detachNode();
  80  *     SOAPBody sb = se.addBody();
  81  * </PRE>
  82  * It is an error to add a <code>SOAPBody</code> or <code>SOAPHeader</code>
  83  * object if one already exists.
  84  * <P>
  85  * The <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> interface provides three methods for creating
  86  * <code>Name</code> objects. One method creates <code>Name</code> objects with
  87  * a local name, a namespace prefix, and a namesapce URI. The second method creates
  88  * <code>Name</code> objects with a local name and a namespace prefix, and the third
  89  * creates <code>Name</code> objects with just a local name.  The following line of
  90  * code, in which <i>se</i> is a <code>SOAPEnvelope</code> object, creates a new
  91  * <code>Name</code> object with all three.
  92  * <PRE>
  93  *     Name name = se.createName("GetLastTradePrice", "WOMBAT",
  94  *                                "http://www.wombat.org/trader");
  95  * </PRE>
