class XML_API Attributes
	/// Interface for a list of XML attributes.
	/// This interface allows access to a list of attributes in three different ways:
	///   1.by attribute index; 
	///   2.by Namespace-qualified name; or 
	///   3.by qualified (prefixed) name. 
	/// 
	/// The list will not contain attributes that were declared #IMPLIED but not 
	/// specified in the start tag. It will also not contain
	/// attributes used as Namespace declarations (xmlns*) unless the 
	/// http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes
	/// feature is set to true (it is false by default).
	/// 
	/// If the namespace-prefixes feature (see above) is false, access by 
	/// qualified name may not be available; if the
	/// http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces feature is false, access by 
	/// Namespace-qualified names may not be available.
	/// This interface replaces the now-deprecated SAX1 AttributeList interface, 
	/// which does not contain Namespace support. In
	/// addition to Namespace support, it adds the getIndex methods (below).
	/// The order of attributes in the list is unspecified, and will vary from 
	/// implementation to implementation.
