Attribute parameter scope limited to ContentHandler.startElement

           Summary: Attribute parameter scope limited to
                    ContentHandler.startElement
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.2.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: JAXP
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: sdgoldst@mailandnews.com


During the startElement() method in a ContentHandler implementation, I store a 
reference to the Attributes parameter and later attempt to use it in 
endElement().  What I experience in endElement(), however, is that the 
variable no longer contains the same data.  It now contains data of another 
element.

The javadocs do not state that the Attributes parameter is scoped to only 
startElement().  Therefore, I would expect to be able to mantain a reference to 
it and use it later.
