/**
 * A representation of the SOAP header
 * element. A SOAP header element consists of XML data that affects
 * the way the application-specific content is processed by the message
 * provider. For example, transaction semantics, authentication information,
 * and so on, can be specified as the content of a {@code SOAPHeader}
 * object.
 * <P>
 * A {@code SOAPEnvelope} object contains an empty
 * {@code SOAPHeader} object by default. If the {@code SOAPHeader}
 * object, which is optional, is not needed, it can be retrieved and deleted
 * with the following line of code. The variable <i>se</i> is a
 * {@code SOAPEnvelope} object.
 * <pre>{@code
 *      se.getHeader().detachNode();
 * }</pre>
 *
 * A {@code SOAPHeader} object is created with the {@code SOAPEnvelope}
 * method {@code addHeader}. This method, which creates a new header and adds it
 * to the envelope, may be called only after the existing header has been removed.
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 *      se.getHeader().detachNode();
 *      SOAPHeader sh = se.addHeader();
 * }</pre>
 * <P>
 * A {@code SOAPHeader} object can have only {@code SOAPHeaderElement}
 * objects as its immediate children. The method {@code addHeaderElement}
 * creates a new {@code HeaderElement} object and adds it to the
 * {@code SOAPHeader} object. In the following line of code, the
 * argument to the method {@code addHeaderElement} is a {@code Name}
 * object that is the name for the new {@code HeaderElement} object.
 * <pre>{@code
 *      SOAPHeaderElement shElement = sh.addHeaderElement(name);
 * }</pre>
