package com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.serializer;

/**
 * This class is a stack frame that consists of
 * information about the element currently being processed
 * by a serializer. Consider this example:
 * <pre>
 *   <A>
 *     <B1>
 *     </B1>
 *     <B2>
 *     </B2>
 *   <A>
 * </pre>
 *
 * A stack frame will be pushed for "A" at depth 1,
 * then another one for "B1" at depth 2.
 * Then "B1" stackframe is popped.  When the stack frame for "B2" is
 * pushed, this implementation re-uses the old stack fram object used
 * by "B1" to be efficient at not creating too many of these object.
 *
 * This is by no means a public class, and neither are its fields or methods,
 * they are all helper fields for a serializer.
 *
 * The purpose of this class is to be more consistent with pushing information
 * when a new element is being serialized and more quickly restoring the old
 * information about the parent element with a simple pop() when the
 * child element is done.  Previously there was some redundant and error-prone
 * calculations going on to retore information.
