Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-907:
------------------------------------
{{SplitIRI}} is a class of functions in support of this. There are operations
to split IRIs based on Turtle or XML (using jena original code).
Changing the wiring for {{Node.getNameSpace()}}/{{Node.getLocalName()}} and
{{Resource.getNameSpace}}/{{Resource.getLocalName()}} not done yet.
There is then the question of whether to change
{{PrefixMapping.shortForm(String)}} which is by contract for display purposes,
not in an output syntax.
{{PrefixMapping.qnameFor}} would remain for XML given it's existing name.
> 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 Turtle 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}}).
