Sorry if this is a simple question, but I have looked for
examples without success...
I want Jena to read N3 with literal XML values,
possibly including namespaces. Then write them out
as RDF, preserving the XML and its namespaces.
An example of my input:
<THING> dc:description
"Text and a <link to='place'>complex element</link>."^^rdf:XMLLiteral .
But the RDF output is escaped XML; the angle brackets
are replaced by escape sequences. I want to process the output
with XSLT, so I would prefer the XML to remain as such.
Is this even supposed to be possible?
Yes and works for me:
temp.ttl =
[[[
@prefix rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> .
@prefix : <http://www.openjena.org/eg#> .
:a :p 'Text and a <link to="place">complex
element</link>.'^^rdf:XMLLiteral .
]]]
rdfcat temp.ttl produces
[[[
<rdf:RDF
xmlns="http://www.openjena.org/eg#";
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#";>
<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.openjena.org/eg#a";>
<p rdf:parseType="Literal">Text and a <link to="place">complex
element</link>.</p>
</rdf:Description>
</rdf:RDF>
]]]
If you are seeing quoting then you probably have an error in the
datatype URI, either in the rdf: declaration or in the spelling of
XMLLiteral itself.
