TDB2 recently got TransactionListener to tap into the transaction lifecycle.That was for a specific need (for abort to undo some changes made ahead of time) but the idea might be general.

In RDF Delta, there is DatasetGraphChanges whch enables you to get changes, which includes begin-commit.

Tapping into the Transactional does seem like a good way to go though.

Hi Dick!

I'm afraid the answer for TDB2 and TIM is no, not out of the box. Both use MVCC 
techniques, not buffering operations. Andy can tell you about TDB1.

This might (maybe) be helpful:

Before Andy and I got TIM into the design it now has (multiple MVCC indexes 
connected transactionally) I did another design that _does_ use buffering of 
operations. Since we didn't go with it, we cut it out of the codebase, but the 
history is there if you find it useful.

Cool - might be a good starting point for buffering. I had a need for a buffering dataset, which keeps the change, makes find() work as if the change happened but does not pass add/delete through until requested.

Hi.

Is it possible to natively detect whether a write has occurred to a
DatasetGraph since a particular epoch?

For the purposes of caching if I perform an expensive read from a
DatasetGraph knowing whether I need to invalidate the cache is very useful.
Does TDB or the Mem natively track if a write has occurred?

Currently I am wrapping the Transactional but am interested if this can be
shimmed to the underlying SPI.
