`lookup` overloads

== Synopses

Declared in `<balxml_namespaceregistry.h>`

Return the null‐terminated string containing the URI of the namespace registered with the specified `id` or an empty (not null) string if `id` does not correspond to a preregistered namespace or a namespace that was previously registered with this object.

Return the integer ID for the specified `namespaceUri` or ‐1 if the namespace has not been registered. Note that not all negative return values correspond to unregistered namespaces. Preregistered namespaces always have negative IDs. (See "Preregistered Namespaces" in the `balxml_namespaceregistry` component‐level documentation.) Note that a return value of ‐1 can mean either an unregistered namespace or an empty URI string. This dual‐use of ‐1 is deliberate and simplifies error handling in most clients.
