The Raptor library provides a high-level interface to a set of parsers and serializers that generate Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples by parsing syntaxes or serialize the triples into syntaxes.

The supported parsing syntaxes are RDF/XML, N-Triples, Turtle, RSS tag soup including Atom 0.3 and the serializing syntaxes are RDF/XML, N-Triples and RSS 1.0. The RDF/XML parser can use either expat or libxml XML parsers for providing the SAX event stream. The library functions are arranged in an object-oriented style with constructors, destructors and method calls. The statements and error messages are delivered via callback functions.

Raptor contains a URI-reference parsing and resolving (not retrieval) class (raptor_uri) sufficient for dealing with URI-references inside RDF. This functionality is modular and can be transparently replaced with another existing and compatible URI implementation.

It also provides a URI-retrieval class (raptor_www) for wrapping existing library such as libcurl, libxml2 or BSD libfetch that provides full or partial retrieval of data from URIs and an I/O stream abstraction (raptor_iostream) for supportin serializing to a variety of outputs.

Raptor uses Unicode strings for RDF literals and URIs and preserves them throughout the library. It uses the UTF-8 encoding of Unicode at the API for passing in or returning Unicode strings. It is intended that the preservation of Unicode for URIs will support Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) which are still under development and standardisation.

raptor_init()

raptor_finish()

Initialise and cleanup the library. These must be called before any raptor class such as raptor_parser, raptor_uri is created or used.

This class provides the functionality of turning syntaxes into RDF triples - RDF parsing.

raptor_parser* raptor_new_parser(n)

Create a new raptor parser object for the parser with name name currently either "rdfxml", "turtle" or "rss-tag-soup" for the RSS Tag Soup parser.

raptor_parser* raptor_new_parser_for_content(raptor_uri *uri, const char *mime_type, const unsigned char *buffer, size_t len, const unsigned char *identifier)

Create a new raptor parser object for a syntax identified by URI uri, MIME type mime_type, some initial content buffer of size len or content with identifier identifier. See the raptor_guess_parser_name description for further details.

void raptor_free_parser(raptor_parser *parser)

Destroy a Raptor parser object.

Several methods can be registered for the parser that return a variable-argument message in the style of printf(3). These also return a raptor_locator that can contain URI, file, line, column and byte counts of where the message is about. This structure can be used with the raptor_format_locator, raptor_print_locator functions below or the structures fields directly, which are defined in raptor.h

void raptor_set_fatal_error_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void *user_data, raptor_message_handler handler)

Set the parser fatal error handler callback.

void raptor_set_error_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void *user_data, raptor_message_handler handler)

Set the parser non-fatal error handler callback.

void raptor_set_warning_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void *user_data, raptor_message_handler handler)

Set the parser warning message handler callback.

raptor_set_namespace_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void* user_data, raptor_namespace_handler handler)

Set the namespace declaration handler callback.

The parser allows the registration of a callback function to return the statements to the application.

void raptor_set_statement_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void *user_data, raptor_statement_handler handler)

Set the statement callback function for the parser. The raptor_statement structure is defined in raptor.h and includes fields for the subject, predicate, object of the statements along with their types and for literals, language and datatype.

These methods perform the entire parsing in one method. Statements warnings, errors and fatal errors are delivered via the registered statement, error etc. handler functions.

In both of these methods, the base URI is required for the RDF/XML parser (name "rdfxml") and Turtle parser (name "turtle"). The N-Triples parser (name "ntriples") or RSS Tag Soup parser (name "rss-tag-soup") do not use this.

int raptor_parse_file(raptor_parser* parser, raptor_uri *uri, raptor_uri *base_uri)

Parse the given filename (a URI like file:filename) according to the optional base URI base_uri. If uri is NULL, read from standard input and base_uri is then required.

int raptor_parse_file_stream(raptor_parser* parser, FILE* stream, const char* filename, raptor_uri *base_uri)

Parse the given C FILE* stream according to the base URI base_uri (required). filename is optional and if given, is used for error messages via the raptor_locator structure.

int raptor_parse_uri(raptor_parser* parser, raptor_uri* uri, raptor_uri *base_uri)

Parse the URI according to the base URI base_uri, or NULL if not needed. If no base URI is given, the uri is used. This method depends on the raptor_www subsystem (see WWW Class section below) and an existing underlying URI retrieval implementation such as libcurl, libxml or BSD libfetch to retrieve the content.

These methods perform the parsing in parts by working on multiple chunks of memory passed by the application. Statements warnings, errors and fatal errors are delivered via the registered statement, error etc. handler functions.

int raptor_start_parse(raptor_parser* parser, const char *uri)

Start a parse of chunked content with the base URI uri or NULL if not needed. The base URI is required for the RDF/XML parser (name "rdfxml") and Turtle parser (name "turtle"). The N-Triples parser (name "ntriples") or RSS Tag Soup parser (name "rss-tag-soup") do not use this.

int raptor_parse_chunk(raptor_parser* parser, const unsigned char *buffer, size_t len, int is_end)

Parse the memory at buffer of size len returning statements via the statement handler callback. If is_end is non-zero, it indicates the end of the parsing stream. This method can only be called after raptor_start_parse.

const char* raptor_get_mime_type(raptor_parser* rdf_parser)

Return the MIME type for the parser.

void raptor_set_parser_strict(raptor_parser *parser, int is_strict)

Set the parser to strict (is_strict not zero) or lax (default) mode. The detail of the strictness can be controlled by raptor_set_feature.

int raptor_set_feature(raptor_parser *parser, raptor_feature feature, int value)

Set a parser feature feature to a particular value. Returns non 0 on failure or if the feature is unknown. The current defined parser features are: Feature Values RAPTOR_FEATURE_SCANNING Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_ASSUME_IS_RDF Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_ALLOW_NON_NS_ATTRIBUTES Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_ALLOW_OTHER_PARSETYPES Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_ALLOW_BAGID Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_ALLOW_RDF_TYPE_RDF_LIST Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_NORMALIZE_LANGUAGE Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_NON_NFC_FATAL Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_CHECK_RDF_ID Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_WARN_OTHER_PARSETYPES Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_CHECK_RDF_ID Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_RELATIVE_URIS Boolean (non 0 true) RAPTOR_FEATURE_START_URI Boolean (non 0 true)

If the scanning feature is true (default false), then the RDF/XML parser will look for embedded rdf:RDF elements inside the XML content, and not require that the XML start with an rdf:RDF root element.

If the assume_is_rdf feature is true (default false), then the RDF/XML parser will assume the content is RDF/XML, not require that rdf:RDF root element, and immediately interpret the content as RDF/XML.

If the allow_non_ns_attributes feature is true (default true), then the RDF/XML parser will allow non-XML namespaced attributes to be accepted as well as rdf: namespaced ones. For example, 'about' and 'ID' will be interpreted as if they were rdf:about and rdf:ID respectively.

If the allow_other_parsetypes feature is true (default true) then the RDF/XML parser will allow unknown parsetypes to be present and will pass them on to the user. Unimplemented at present.

If the allow_bagid feature is true (default true) then the RDF/XML parser will support the rdf:bagID attribute that was removed from the RDF/XML language when it was revised. This support may be removed in future.

If the allow_rdf_type_rdf_list feature is true (default false) then the RDF/XML parser will generate the idList rdf:type rdf:List triple in the handling of rdf:parseType="Collection". This triple was removed during the revising of RDF/XML after collections were initially added.

If the normalize_language feature is true (default true) then XML language values such as from xml:lang will be normalized to lowercase.

If the non_nfc_fatal feature is true (default false) then illegal Unicode Normal Form C in literals will give a fatal error, otherwise it gives a warning.

If the check_rdf_id feature is true (default true) then rdf:ID values will be checked for duplicates and cause an error if found.

raptor_parser_set_feature_string(raptor_parser *parser, raptor_feature feature, const unsigned char *value)

Set a parser feature feature to a particular string value. Returns non 0 on failure or if the feature is unknown. The current defined parser features are given in raptor_set_feature and at present only take integer values. If an integer value feature is set with this function, value is interpreted as an integer and then that value is used.

int raptor_get_feature(raptor_parser* parser, raptor_feature feature)

Get parser feature integer values. The allowed feature values and types are given under raptor_features_enumerate.

const unsigned char* raptor_parser_get_feature_string(raptor_parser *parser, raptor_feature feature)

Get parser feature string values. The allowed feature values and types are given under raptor_features_enumerate.

int raptor_feature_value_type(const raptor_feature feature)

Get a raptor feature value tyype - integer or string.

raptor_locator* raptor_get_locator(raptor_parser* rdf_parser)

Return the current raptor_locator object for the parser. This is a public structure defined in raptor.h that can be used directly, or formatted via raptor_print_locator.

void raptor_get_name(raptor_parser *parser)

Return the string short name for the parser.

void raptor_get_label(raptor_parser *parser)

Return a string label for the parser.

void raptor_set_default_generate_id_parameters(raptor_parser* rdf_parser, char *prefix, int base)

Control the default method for generation of IDs for blank nodes and bags. The method uses a short string prefix and an integer base to generate the identifier which is not guaranteed to be a strict concatenation. If prefix is NULL, the default is used. If base is less than 1, it is initialised to 1.

void raptor_set_generate_id_handler(raptor_parser* parser, void *user_data, raptor_generate_id_handler handler)

Allow full customisation of the generated IDs by setting a callback handler and associated user_data that is called whenever a blank node or bag identifier is required. The memory returned is deallocated inside raptor. Some systems require this to be allocated inside the same library, in which case the raptor_alloc_memory function may be useful.

int raptor_parsers_enumerate(const unsigned int counter, const char **name, const char **label)

Return the parser name/label for a parser with a given integer counter, returning non-zero if no such parser at that offset exists. The counter should start from 0 and be incremented by 1 until the function returns non-zero.

int raptor_syntaxes_enumerate(const unsigned int counter, const char **name, const char **label, const char **mime_type, const unsigned char **uri-string)

Return the name, label, mime type or URI string (all optional) for a parser syntax with a given integer counter, returning non-zero if no such syntax parser at that offset exists. The counter should start from 0 and be incremented by 1 until the function returns non-zero.

int raptor_features_enumerate(const raptor_feature feature, const char **name, raptor_uri **uri, const char **label)

Return the name, URI, string label (all optional) for a parser feature, returning non-zero if no such feature exists.

Raptor features have URIs that are constructed from the URI http://feature.librdf.org/raptor- and the name so for example feature scanForRDF has URI http://feature.librdf.org/raptor-scanForRDF

int raptor_syntax_name_check(const char *name)

Check name is a known syntax name.

const char* raptor_guess_parser_name(raptor_uri *uri, const char *mime_type, const unsigned char *buffer, size_t len, const unsigned char *identifier)

Guess a parser name for a syntax identified by URI uri, MIME type mime_type, some initial content buffer of size len or with content identifier identifier. All of these parameters are optional and only used if not NULL. The parser is chosen by scoring the hints that are given.

raptor_feature raptor_feature_from_uri(raptor_uri *uri)

Turn a URI uri into a raptor feature identifier, or <0 if the feature is unknown. The URIs are described below raptor_set_feature.

void raptor_print_statement(const raptor_statement* const statement, FILE *stream)

Turns part of raptor statement into N-Triples format, using all the escapes as defined in http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/#ntriples The part (subject, predicate, object) of the raptor_statement is passed in as term, the part type (subject_type, predicate_type, object_type) is passed in as type. When the part is a literal, the literal_datatype and literal_language fields are set, otherwise NULL (usually object_datatype, object_literal_language).

If raptor_statement_part_as_counted_string is used, the length of the returned string is stored in *len_p if not NULL.

int raptor_format_locator(char *buffer, size_t length, raptor_locator* locator)

This method takes a raptor_locator object as passed to an error, warning or other handler callback and formats it into the buffer of size length bytes. If buffer is NULL or length is insufficient for the size of the formatted locator, returns the number of additional bytes required in the buffer to write the locator.

In particular, if this form is used: length=raptor_format_locator(NULL, 0, locator) it will return in length the size of a buffer that can be allocated for locator and a second call will perform the formatting: raptor_format_locator(buffer, length, locator)

void raptor_print_locator(FILE *stream, raptor_locator* locator)

This method takes a raptor_locator object as passed to an error, warning or other handler callback, formats and prints it to the given stdio stream.

Returns the URI string in a locator structure or NULL if not available. Note this does not return a raptor_uri* pointer and the returned pointer is to a shared string that must be copied if needed.

void raptor_print_ntriples_string(FILE* stream, const char* string, const char delim)

This is a standalone function that prints the given string according to N-Triples escaping rules, expecting to be terminated by delimiter delim which is usually either ', or <. If a null delimiter \0 is given, no extra escaping is performed.

int raptor_iostream_write_string_ntriples(raptor_iostream *iostr, const unsigned char *string, size_t len, const char delim)

Write an N-Triples encoded version of the given string to iostream iostr. If delim is given, that is the ending delimeter of the encoded string and it will be escaped in the output as appropriate. Useful delim values are ', and >. If a null delimiter \0 is given, no extra escaping is performed.

void raptor_iostream_write_statement_ntriples(raptor_iostream* iostr, const raptor_statement *statement)

Write an N-Triples encoded version of the raptor_statement statement to iostream iostr.

const char* raptor_ntriples_term_as_string (raptor_ntriples_term_type term)

Apply the XML escaping rules to the string given in (string, len) into the buffer of size length. If quote is given, the escaped content is for an XML attribute and the appropriate quote character XML element content (CDATA). The error_handler method along with error_data allow error reporting to be given. If buffer is NULL, returns the size of the buffer required to escape. Otherwise the return value is the number of bytes used or <0 on failure.

When an xml_version argument is present and has a value 10 (XML 1.0) or 11 (XML 1.1) then that version is used. The default with no argument is to generate XML 1.0.

int raptor_iostream_write_xml_any_escaped_string(raptor_iostream* iostr, const unsigned char* string, size_t len, char quote, int xml_version, raptor_simple_message_handler error_handler, void* error_data)

int raptor_iostream_write_xml_escaped_string(raptor_iostream* iostr, const unsigned char *string, size_t len, char quote, raptor_simple_message_handler error_handler, void *error_data)

Write an XML-escaped version of the string given in (string, len) to iostream iostr. If quote is given, the escaped content is for an XML attribute and the appropriate quote character is used, otherwise it is XML element content (CDATA). The error_handler method along with error_data allow error reporting to be given.

When an xml_version argument is present and has a value 10 (XML 1.0) or 11 (XML 1.1) then that version is used. The default with no argument is to generate XML 1.0.

int raptor_xml_name_check(const unsigned char *string, size_t length, int xml_version)

Check that the given string of length bytes is a legal XML name according to XML 1.0 or XML 1.1. xml_version is set to 10 or 11 respectively. Returns non-zero if the name is legal.

void raptor_free_memory(void *ptr)

unsigned char* raptor_uri_as_string(raptor_uri* uri)

Return a shared pointer to a string representation of the given raptor URI uri. This string is shared and must not be freed (otherwise see the raptor_uri_to_* methods below). If raptor_uri_as_counted_string is used, the length of the returned string is stored in *len_p if not NULL.

unsigned char* raptor_uri_to_counted_string(raptor_uri *uri, size_t *len_p)

unsigned char* raptor_uri_to_string(raptor_uri *uri)

Return a to a newly alloced string representation of the given raptor URI uri. This string must be freed by the caller using raptor_free_memory. If raptor_uri_to_counted_string is used, the length of the returned string is stored in *len_p if not NULL.

unsigned char* raptor_uri_to_relative_counted_uri_string(raptor_uri *base_uri, raptor_uri *reference_uri, size_t *length_p)

unsigned char* raptor_uri_to_relative_uri_string(raptor_uri *base_uri, raptor_uri *reference_uri)

Return a new relative URI string of a URI reference_uri against a base URI base_uri. The returned string must be freed with raptor_free_memory. If raptor_uri_to_relative_counted_string is used, the length of the returned string is stored in *len_p if not NULL.

This is a standalone function that resolves the relative URI reference_uri against the base URI base_uri according to the URI resolution rules in RFC2396. The resulting URI is stored in buffer which is of length bytes. If this is too small, no work will be done.

char *raptor_uri_filename_to_uri_string(const unsigned char* filename)

This is a standalone function that turns a local filename (Windows or Unix style as appropriate for platform) into a URI string (file). The returned string must be freed by the caller. Some systems require memory allocated in a library to be deallocated inside that library in which case raptor_free_memory may be used.

char *raptor_uri_uri_string_to_filename(const unsigned char* uri_string)

char *raptor_uri_uri_string_to_filename(const unsigned char* uri_string, unsigned char **fragment_p)

These are standalone functions that turn a URI string that represents a local filename (file:) into a filename, with optional URI fragment. If fragment_p is not NULL it points to the location to store a newly allocated string containing the fragment. The returned strings must be freed by the caller. Some systems require memory allocated in a library to be deallocated inside that library in which case raptor_free_memory may be used.

"int Returns non-zero if the given URI string represents a filename, is a file: URI.

"void Change the URI class implementation to the functions provided by the handler URI implementation. The context user data is passed in to the handler URI implementation calls.

"void Return the current raptor URI class implementation handler and context

This is a small wrapper class around existing WWW libraries in order to provide HTTP GET or better URI retrieval for Raptor. It is not intended to be a general purpose WWW retrieval interface.

void raptor_www_init(void)

void raptor_www_finish(void)

Initialise or terminate the raptor_www infrastructure. raptor_www_init and raptor_finish are called by raptor_init and raptor_finish respecitively, otherwise must be called once each.

NOTE

Several of the WWW library implementations require once-only initialisation and termination functions to be called, however raptor cannot determine whether this is already done before the library is initialised in raptor_www_init or terminated in raptor_www_finish, so always performs it. This can be changed by raptor_www_no_www_library_init_finish.

void raptor_www_no_www_library_init_finish(void)

If this is called before raptor_www_init, it will not call the underlying WWW library global initialise or terminate functions. The application code must perform both operations.

For example with curl, after this function is called, neither curl_global_init nor curl_global_cleanup will be called during raptor_www_init or raptor_www_finish respectively.

raptor_www *raptor_www_new(void)

raptor_www *raptor_www_new_with_connection(void* connection)

Create a raptor WWW object capable of URI retrieval. If connection is given, it must match the connection object of the underlying WWW implementation. At present, this is only for libcurl, and allows you to re-use an existing curl handle, or use one which has been set up with some desired qualities.

void raptor_www_free(raptor_www *www)

Destroy a raptor WWW object.

void raptor_www_set_user_agent(raptor_www *www, const char *user_agent)

Set the user agent, for HTTP requests typically.

void raptor_www_set_proxy(raptor_www *www, const char *proxy)

Set the HTTP proxy - usually a string of the form http://server:port

raptor_www_set_write_bytes_handler(raptor_www *www, raptor_www_write_bytes_handler handler, void *user_data)

Set the handler to receive bytes written by the raptor_www implementation.

void raptor_www_set_content_type_handler(raptor_www *www, raptor_www_content_type_handler handler, void *user_data)

Set the handler to receive the HTTP Content-Type value, when/if discovered during retrieval by the raptor_www implementation.

void raptor_www_set_http_accept(raptor_www *www, const char *value)

Set the WWW HTTP Accept: header to value. If value is NULL, an empty header is sent.

void raptor_www_set_error_handler(raptor_www *www, raptor_message_handler error_handler, void *error_data)

Set the error handler routine for the raptor_www class. This takes the same arguments as the raptor_parser error, warning handler methods.

void* raptor_www_get_connection(raptor_www *www)

Return the underlying WWW library connection object. For example, for libcurl this is the curl_handle.

int raptor_www_fetch(raptor_www *www, raptor_uri *uri)

Retrieve the given URL, returning non zero on failure.

int raptor_www_fetch_to_string(raptor_www *www, raptor_uri *uri, void **string_p, size_t *length_p, void *(*malloc_handler)(size_t size))

Retrieve the given URL to a string. string_p must point to a void* pointer that will be used to store the newly allocated string. length_p if not NULL, it will be used to store the length of the new string.

void raptor_www_abort(raptor_www *www, const char *reason)

Abort an ongoing raptor WWW operation. Typically used within one of the raptor WWW handlers.

This is a class for handling XML QNames consisting of the pair of (a URI from a namespace, a local name) along with an optional value -- useful for XML attributes. This is used with the raptor_namespace_stack and raptor_namespace classes to handle a stack of raptor_namespace that build on raptor_qname.

There are two constructors for raptor_qname to build qnames with optional values on a stack of names.

raptor_qname* raptor_new_qname(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, const unsigned char *name, const unsigned char *value, raptor_simple_message_handler error_handler, void *error_data)

Create a raptor QName name (a possibly :-separated name) with name to be resolved against the given nstack namespace stack. An optional value can be given, and if there is an error, the error_handler and error_data will be used to invoke the callback.

raptor_qname* raptor_new_qname_from_namespace_local_name (raptor_namespace *ns, const unsigned char *local_name, const unsigned char *value)

Create a raptor QName using the namespace name of the raptor_namespace ns and the local name local_name, along with optional value value. Errors are reported using the error handling and data of the namespace.

raptor_qname* raptor_qname_copy(raptor_qname *qname)

Create a raptor QName from an existing one, returning NULL on failure.

void raptor_free_qname(raptor_qname* name)

Destroy a raptor qname object.

int raptor_qname_equal(raptor_qname* name1, raptor_qname *name2)

Return non-zero if the given QNames are equal.

int raptor_iostream_write_qname(raptor_iostream* iostr, raptor_qname *qname)

Return the URI corresponding to the QName according to the RDF method; concatenating the namespace's name (URI) with the local name. Takes the same arguments as raptor_new_qname but does not create a raptor_qname object.

An XML namespace class - each entry is on a stack and consists of a name (URI) and prefix. The prefix or the name but not both may be empty. If the prefix is empty, it defines the default prefix. If the name is empty, it undefines the given prefix.

raptor_namespace* raptor_new_namespace(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, const unsigned char *prefix, const unsigned char *ns_uri_string, int depth)

raptor_namespace* raptor_new_namespace_from_uri(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, const unsigned char *prefix, raptor_uri* ns_uri, int depth)

Create a new raptor_namespace object on the given namespace stack nstack with prefix prefix and namespace name either from URI string ns_uri_string or from copying URI ns_uri.

If prefix is NULL, it defines the URI for the default namespace prefix. If the namespace name (ns_uri_string or ns_uri) is NULL, it undefines the given prefix in the current scope. Both prefix and URI may be NULL to undefine the default namespace. depth signifies the position of the namespace on the stack; 0 is the bottom of the stack and generally the first depth for user namespace declarations.

Namespaces declared on the same depth (such as on the same XML element, typically) can be handily freed with raptor_namespaces_end_for_depth method on the namespace stack class.

void raptor_free_namespace(raptor_namespace *ns)

Destroy a raptor namespace object.

raptor_uri* raptor_namespace_get_uri(const raptor_namespace *ns)

Return the namespace name (URI) of the namespace.

Return the prefix of the namespace.

unsigned char *raptor_namespaces_format(const raptor_namespace *ns, size_t *length_p)

Format the namespace as a string and return it as a new string, returning the length of the resulting string in length_p if it is not NULL. The string format is suitable for emitting in XML to declare the namespace.

int raptor_iostream_write_namespace(raptor_iostream* iostr, raptor_namespace *ns)

Write a formatted namespace declaration like xmlns... to an iostream iostr.

int raptor_namespace_copy(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, raptor_namespace *ns, int new_depth)

Copy the namespace from the current stack to the new one, nstack at depth new_depth.

int raptor_new_namespace_parts_from_string(unsigned char *string, unsigned char **prefix, unsigned char **uri_string)

Parse string with an XML-style namespace declaration like xmlns="", xmlns="uri", xmlns:prefix="" or xmlns:prefix="uri" into the strings pointed to by prefix string and a uri_string. Empty prefixes or namespace names return NULL pointers. Returned strings must be freed by the caller using raptor_free_memory.

A stack of raptor_namespace objects where the namespaces on top of the stack have wider scope and override earlier (lower) namespace declarations. Intended to match the XML namespace declaring semantics using xmlns attributes.

raptor_namespace_stack* raptor_new_namespaces(raptor_uri_handler *uri_handler, void *uri_context, raptor_simple_message_handler error_handler, void *error_data, int defaults)

void raptor_namespaces_init(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, raptor_uri_handler *handler, void *context, raptor_simple_message_handler error_handler, void *error_data, int defaults)

Create or initialise a new raptor_namespace_stack object with the given URI and error handlers. raptor_namespaces_new allocates new memory for the namespace stack and raptor_namespaces_init initialises an existing declared nstack, which could be statically allocated. Note that raptor_uri_get_handler can be useful to return the current raptor URI handler/context. The defaults argument describes which default namespaces are declared in the empty stack. At present, 0 is none, 1 for just the XML namespace and 2 is for a typical set of namespaces used for RDF, RDFS, Dublin Core, OWL, ... that may vary over time.

void raptor_free_namespaces(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack)

void raptor_namespaces_end_for_depth(raptor_namespace_stack *nstack, int depth)

End (and free) all namespaces on the stack at the given depth.

raptor_namespace* raptor_namespaces_get_default_namespace (raptor_namespace_stack *nstack)
