Special register names can be preceded with a "namespace" prefix. The namespace is the first part of the name before the first decimal. For example, register xyz is in the default namespace, while register abc.xyz is in the abc namespace.

The NHTTP/NAS2 components support Register Namespaces via the configurable parameters for request & response headers.

The XDSREGNamespaceAgent, is available to perform the following operations on registers in namespaces:

• Copy: Duplicates registers from a source namespace to a destination namespace. After a copy operation is performed, the registers are available in both namespaces.

• Move: Moves registers from one namespace to another.

• Delete: Deletes all registers in the namespace.

• Exist: If any registers exist in the name namespace, pass the flow down the success edge, else down the notfound edge.
