.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This class represents \s-1RDF\s0 URIs, literals and blank nodes in the \s-1RDF\s0 graph.
.SH "CONSTRUCTORS"
.IX Header "CONSTRUCTORS"
.IP "new [\s-1STRING\s0 | \s-1URI\s0 | \s-1NODE\s0]" 4
.IX Item "new [STRING | URI | NODE]"
Create a new \s-1URI\s0 node, literal node or copy an existing node.
.Sp
If a literal \fI\s-1STRING\s0\fR is given, make a plain literal node. If a
the argument is of type \fI\s-1URI\s0\fR (perl \s-1URI\s0 or RDF::Redland::URI),
make a resource node.
.Sp
Otherwise if the argument is an RDF::Redland::Node \fI\s-1NODE\s0\fR, copy it.
.IP "new_from_uri \s-1URI\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_from_uri URI"
Create a new \s-1URI\s0 node. \fI\s-1URI\s0\fR can be either a RDF::Redland::URI
object, a perl \s-1URI\s0 class or a literal string.
.Sp
An alternative is:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& new RDF::Redland::URINode("http://example.org/");
.Ve
.IP "new_literal \s-1STRING\s0 [\s-1DATATYPE\s0 [\s-1XML_LANGUAGE\s0]]" 4
.IX Item "new_literal STRING [DATATYPE [XML_LANGUAGE]]"
Create a new literal node for a literal value \fI\s-1STRING\s0\fR.
Optional datatype \s-1URI \s0\fI\s-1DATATYPE\s0\fR (RDF::Redland::URI, perl \s-1URI\s0 or string)
and language (xml:lang attribute) \fI\s-1XML_LANGUAGE\s0\fR may also be given.
.Sp
An alternative is:
.Sp
.Vb 2
\& new RDF::Redland::LiteralNode("Hello, World!");
\& new RDF::Redland::LiteralNode("Bonjour monde!", undef, "fr");
.Ve
.IP "new_xml_literal \s-1STRING\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_xml_literal STRING"
Create a new \s-1XML\s0 datatyped literal node for the \s-1XML\s0 in \fI\s-1STRING\s0\fR.
.Sp
An alternative is:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& new RDF::Redland::XMLLiteral("content");
.Ve
.IP "new_from_blank_identifier \s-1IDENTIFIER\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_from_blank_identifier IDENTIFIER"
Create a new blank node with blank node identifier \fI\s-1IDENTIFIER\s0\fR.
.Sp
An alternative is:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& new RDF::Redland::BlankNode("id");
.Ve
.IP "clone" 4
.IX Item "clone"
Copy a RDF::Redland::Node.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.IP "uri" 4
.IX Item "uri"
Get the current \s-1URI\s0 of the node as an RDF::Redland::URI object.
.IP "blank_identifier" 4
.IX Item "blank_identifier"
Get the current blank identifier of the node
.IP "type" 4
.IX Item "type"
Get the node type. It is recommended to use the is_resource, is_literal
or is_blank methods in preference to this (both simpler and quicker).
.Sp
The current list of types that are supported are:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\& $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Resource
\& $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal
\& $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Blank
.Ve
.Sp
Example:
.Sp
.Vb 5
\& if ($node\->type == $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Resource) {
\& print "Node is a resource with URI ", $node\->uri\->as_string, "\en";
\& } else {
\& ...
\& }
.Ve
.IP "is_resource" 4
.IX Item "is_resource"
Return true if node is a resource (with a \s-1URI\s0)
.IP "is_literal" 4
.IX Item "is_literal"
Return true if node is a literal
.IP "is_blank" 4
.IX Item "is_blank"
Return true if node is a blank nodeID
.IP "literal_value" 4
.IX Item "literal_value"
Get the node literal value string as \s-1UTF\-8 \s0(when the node is of type
\&\f(CW$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal\fR)
.IP "literal_value_as_latin1" 4
.IX Item "literal_value_as_latin1"
Get the node literal value string converted from \s-1UTF\-8\s0 to \s-1ISO\s0 Latin\-1
(when the node is of type \f(CW$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal\fR)
.IP "literal_value_language" 4
.IX Item "literal_value_language"
Get the node literal \s-1XML\s0 language (when the node is of type
\&\f(CW$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal\fR) or undef if not present.
.IP "literal_value_is_wf_xml" 4
.IX Item "literal_value_is_wf_xml"
Return non 0 if the literal string is well formed \s-1XML \s0(when the node
is of type \f(CW$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal\fR).
.IP "literal_datatype" 4
.IX Item "literal_datatype"
Return the RDF::Redland::URI of the literal datatype or undef if it
is not a datatype.
.IP "as_string" 4
.IX Item "as_string"
Return the RDF::Redland::Node formatted as a string (\s-1UTF\-8\s0 encoded).
.IP "equals \s-1NODE\s0" 4
.IX Item "equals NODE"
Return non zero if this node is equal to \s-1NODE\s0
.SH "OLDER METHODS"
.IX Header "OLDER METHODS"
.IP "new_from_literal \s-1STRING XML_LANGUAGE IS_WF\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_from_literal STRING XML_LANGUAGE IS_WF"
Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object for a literal value \fI\s-1STRING\s0\fR with \s-1XML\s0
language (xml:lang attribute) \fI\s-1XML_LANGUAGE\s0\fR
and if content is well formed \s-1XML,\s0 when \fI\s-1IS_WF\s0\fR is non
0. \fI\s-1XML_LANGUAGE\s0\fR is optional can can be set to undef.
.Sp
This method remains but using new_literal is preferred.
Instead, for plain literals use:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& $node=new RDF::Redland::Node("blah")
.Ve
.IP "new_from_typed_literal \s-1STRING\s0 [\s-1DATATYPE\s0 [\s-1XML_LANGUAGE\s0]]" 4
.IX Item "new_from_typed_literal STRING [DATATYPE [XML_LANGUAGE]]"
Renamed to new_literal with same arguments.
.IP "new_from_uri_string \s-1URI_STRING\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_from_uri_string URI_STRING"
Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object for a resource with \s-1URI \s0\fI\s-1URI_STRING\s0\fR.
It is equivalent to use the shorter:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& $a=new RDF::Redland::Node\->new_from_uri($uri_string)
.Ve
.IP "new_from_node \s-1NODE\s0" 4
.IX Item "new_from_node NODE"
Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object from existing
RDF::Redland::Node \fI\s-1NODE\s0\fR (copy constructor).
It is equivalent to use:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& $new_node=$old_node\->clone
