Namespace definition

The namespace definition may be primarily used to define a namespace that may be used for protecting or versioning other definitions and XML data processing.

namespace ns1
namespace ns2 = "http://example.com/secret/2015"

In addition, the namespace definition may also be used to define aliases to a package wildcard import, as in:

// com.inexistentninja.kunai.*
namespace kunai = "com.inexistentninja.kunai";

// an alias to the top-level package.
// users can just use `global` if it doesn't conflict
// with their names.
namespace shock_global = global;

Syntax

NamespaceDefinition :
namespace IdentifierName
namespace IdentifierName = AssignmentExpression^allowIn

Semantics

A URI namespace contains at least a colon; namespaces assigned a string literal without a colon will result into an alias to a package wildcard import.
