----------------------------------
Summary: Change contract on getLocalname/getNameSpace.
Key: JENA-907
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-907
Project: Apache Jena
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Jena
Reporter: Andy Seaborne
Priority: Minor
The methods {{getLocalName}} and {{getNamespace}} only split a URI if it is a
strict legal RDF/XML value.
This is becoming a source of questions on users@ as well as various forums.
The expectation of users has moved on toexpect a split more freely, inspired by
Turtle. The usages seem to be more about presentation of data than use in
syntax.
Proposal for Jena3:
{{getLocalName}} and {{getNamespace}} used outside of syntax creation are
considered as being for presentation and more aggressive split URIs. This is
at least as much as Trutle would, and possible at the last {{/}} or {{#}}
regardless of legality of the local part.
Currently found in:
# {{Node.getLocalName}}
# {{Property.getLocalName}}
# {{Resource.getLocalName}}
To do this, RDF/XML ouput needs its own copy of the origonal code
({{Util.splitNamespace}}).
