Hey,
I have some code that adds query parameters to SPARQL Protocol requests.
According to my quick research, the final HTTP query string depends on
com.hp.hpl.jena.sparql.engine.http.Params.httpString():
public String httpString()
{
StringBuffer sbuff = new StringBuffer() ;
boolean first = true ;
for (Pair p : pairs())
{
if ( !first )
sbuff.append('&') ;
sbuff.append(p.getName()) ;
sbuff.append('=') ;
String x = p.getValue() ;
x = Convert.encWWWForm(x) ;
sbuff.append(x) ;
first = false ;
}
return sbuff.toString() ;
}
I see the parameter values being encoded, but not the names, for some
reason? Looks like a bug to me.
Also, the code depends on URLEncoder.encode(), which implements
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded", aka HTML form encoding.
To my understanding, this is different from the URI syntax spec:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986
One of the differences is space encoded as "+" vs. "%20".
Am I right that the incorrect encoding is used here (and probably in
similar places)?
