Peter Ansell commented on ANY23-83:
-----------------------------------
"- About the suggested RDFParserTripleHandler: the RDFParserTripleHandler is a
TripleHandler meant to serialize the received messages
so it has to accept an RDFWriter, despite the current small difference
between an RDFHandler and an RDFWriter it is cleaner to use the first,
also keeping in mind future evolutions of such interface. "
The RDFParserTripleHandler code only uses the RDFHandler API currently. I don't
have a use case for it currently, but I think it would be nice to allow any
RDFHandlers even if they do not implement the full RDFWriter API. if you want
to allow the future possibility of using the RDFWriter API in addition to the
RDFHandler API then it would be best for API stability to leave it at the more
restrictive RDFWriter.

> Many classes inside of Any23 seem to hardcode restrictions on the supported
> formats, making it difficult to utilise Any23 as an extensible library.
> One example of this are RDFSchemaUtils that artificially restricts itself to
> three formats using an enum mapping, where it could easily accept any
> RDFHandler, even if it were not an RDFWriter.
> Another example is RDFUtils where the list of RDFParser's is hardcoded in,
> and enforced using an enum.
> What was the reasoning for creating artificial format classes and manually
> mapping them to writers/parsers instead of using either allowing any
> RDFHandler in the first case, or allowing any accessible RDFParser in the
> second case, using Rio.getParser() to avoid hardcoding anything.
