Namespace aliases allow the programmer to define an alternate name for a namespace.
They are commonly used as a convenient shortcut for long or deeply-nested namespaces.

alias_name = ns_name;
(1) namespace
alias_name = ::
ns_name;
(2) namespace
alias_name = nested_name::
ns_name;
(3) [edit] Explanation
The new alias alias_name provides an alternate method of accessing ns_name.
alias_name must be a name not previously used. alias_name is valid for the duration of the scope in which it is introduced.
