question: public boolean isRecursiveAttrSet ( ElemAttributeSet attrSet ) { if ( null == m_attrSetStack ) { m_attrSetStack = new Stack ( ) ; } if ( ! m_attrSetStack . empty ( ) ) { int loc = m_attrSetStack . search ( attrSet ) ; if ( loc > - 1 ) { return true ; } } return false ; }
target:  Check to see if this is a recursive attribute definition.
