Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-721:
------------------------------------

While the code is structured as a stack of facilties, the encoding of values 
into NodeIds goes all the way to the disk. It isn't a feature of some reasoner.

If a database is created with no NodeId layer in the NodeTable stack, it is 
incompatible with running later with the NodeTable layer, and vice versa.

A validation as you describe can be done (more efficiently) as data is parsed 
either immediately prior to loading or a separate validation step. I think the 
latter is better - validate all data before attempting to load fixing in the 
database can be messy (e.g. blank nodes) and othervalidation failures may even 
break the loading step.

{{riot.infer}} is an example of a process that reads the schema then processes 
the data in a streaming fashion.

Would that approach to validating datatypes, beforeTDB processes them as 
values, work for you?

>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: TDB
>    Affects Versions: TDB 1.0.1
>            Reporter: Marek Kowalczyk
>
> NodeId.inline$ changes the actual type of literals from subtypes of 
> xsd:integer  to xsd:integer, for instance: literals of type 
> xsd:positiveInteger are stored ad inline type INTEGER and during read decoded 
> as xsd:integer in NodeId.extract(NodeId)
> {code}
>  case INTEGER:
>             {
>                 long val = IntegerNode.unpack(v) ;
>                 Node n = NodeFactory.createLiteral(Long.toString(val), null, 
> XSDDatatype.XSDinteger) ;
>                 return n ;
>             }
> {code}
> It would be nice to add support for various xsd:types and use the 7 bits 
> reserved for inline type to represent more than 7 types.
> As a fastest workaround I've disabled the inline literals in NodeId( using 
> reflection) , but it would be great If it would be configurable via context 
> or parameter in StoreConnection.make(); or via SystemParams
