RDFParser

public class RDFXMLParser
extends RDFParserBase

A parser for XML-serialized RDF. This parser operates directly on the SAX events generated by a SAX-enabled XML parser. The XML parser should be compliant with SAX2. You should specify which SAX parser should be used by setting the org.xml.sax.driver property. This parser is not thread-safe, therefore it's public methods are synchronized.

To parse a document using this parser:

• Create an instance of RDFXMLParser, optionally supplying it with your own ValueFactory.
• Set the RDFHandler.
• Optionally, set the ParseErrorListener and/or ParseLocationListener.
• Optionally, specify whether the parser should verify the data it parses and whether it should stop immediately when it finds an error in the data (both default to true).
• Call the parse method.

Example code:

 // Use the SAX2-compliant Xerces parser:
 System.setProperty("org.xml.sax.driver", "org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
 
 RDFParser parser = new RDFXMLParser();
 parser.setRDFHandler(myRDFHandler);
 parser.setParseErrorListener(myParseErrorListener);
 parser.setVerifyData(true);
 parser.stopAtFirstError(false);
 
 // Parse the data from inputStream, resolving any
 // relative URIs against http://foo/bar:
 parser.parse(inputStream, "http://foo/bar");

Constructor Detail

RDFXMLParser

public RDFXMLParser()

Creates a new RDFXMLParser that will use a ValueFactoryImpl to create RDF model objects.

RDFXMLParser

public RDFXMLParser(ValueFactory valueFactory)

Creates a new RDFXMLParser that will use the supplied ValueFactory to create RDF model objects.

Parameters:

valueFactory - A ValueFactory.

Method Detail

getRDFFormat

public final RDFFormat getRDFFormat()

Description copied from interface: RDFParser

Gets the RDF format that this parser can parse.

setParseStandAloneDocuments

public void setParseStandAloneDocuments(boolean standAloneDocs)

Sets the parser in a mode to parse stand-alone RDF documents. In stand-alone RDF documents, the enclosing rdf:RDF root element is optional if this root element contains just one element (e.g. rdf:Description.

getParseStandAloneDocuments

public boolean getParseStandAloneDocuments()

Returns whether the parser is currently in a mode to parse stand-alone RDF documents.

setParseStandAloneDocuments(boolean)

parse

public void parse(InputStream in,
                  String baseURI)
           throws IOException,
                  RDFParseException,
                  RDFHandlerException

Parses the data from the supplied InputStream, using the supplied baseURI to resolve any relative URI references.

Parameters:

in - The InputStream from which to read the data, must not be null.

baseURI - The URI associated with the data in the InputStream, must not be null.

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.

RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.

RDFHandlerException - If the configured statement handler encountered an unrecoverable error.

IllegalArgumentException - If the supplied input stream or base URI is null.

parse

                  String baseURI)
           throws IOException,
                  RDFParseException,
                  RDFHandlerException

Parses the data from the supplied Reader, using the supplied baseURI to resolve any relative URI references.

Parameters:

reader - The Reader from which to read the data, must not be null.

baseURI - The URI associated with the data in the InputStream, must not be null.

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error occurred while data was read from the InputStream.

RDFParseException - If the parser has found an unrecoverable parse error.

RDFHandlerException - If the configured statement handler has encountered an unrecoverable error.
