graph.QueryHandler only used to support reification.
Seems reasonable. I've used BulkUpdateHandler in client code on the
assumption that a store *might* optimize the updates but at least some
of those cases are, or could be made, add(Graph) calls.
Presumably this would this be a normal deprecate-then-remove-later cycle?
The Model operations remain -
Model.add(Statement[])
Model.add(StmtIterator iter)
Model.add(List<Statement> statements)
We could also consider simplification at the Model level- that wasn't on
my list.
It's interesting if you're using Graph level in an application - I'd
like to promote the Graph "SPI" as a more formally API after the
cleaning up.
Is that code still in use?
I thought it was but having now checked then no, none of my currently
in-use projects use BulkUpdateHandler directly.
At the SPI level (Graph API), there is less of a contract on migration.
Agreed. I'm fine with going ahead with the change.
The reasoner does use the bulk update handler - but that's in-codebase
so that will just be cleaned up as part of the change.
Sure.
