/**
 * A container for DetailEntry objects. DetailEntry
 * objects give detailed error information that is application-specific and
 * related to the SOAPBody object that contains it.
 * 
 * A Detail object, which is part of a SOAPFault
 * object, can be retrieved using the method SOAPFault.getDetail.
 * The Detail interface provides two methods. One creates a new
 * DetailEntry object and also automatically adds it to
 * the Detail object. The second method gets a list of the
 * DetailEntry objects contained in a Detail
 * object.
 * 

 * The following code fragment, in which sf is a SOAPFault
 * object, gets its Detail object (d), adds a new
 * DetailEntry object to d, and then gets a list of all the
 * DetailEntry objects in d. The code also creates a
 * Name object to pass to the method addDetailEntry.
 * The variable se, used to create the Name object,
 * is a SOAPEnvelope object.
 * 
 *    Detail d = sf.getDetail();
 *    Name name = se.createName("GetLastTradePrice", "WOMBAT",
 *                                "http://www.wombat.org/trader");
 *    d.addDetailEntry(name);
 *    Iterator it = d.getDetailEntries();
