This PR is looking good. It'll be great to have true stream implementation of JSON results for the normal cases of a result set that "head" then the "results" array.

Dear all,


I want to inform you of an active PR for making RowSets over application/sparql-reults+json streaming


JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/JENA/issues/JENA-2302

PR: https://github.com/apache/jena/pull/1218


As nowadays JSON is the default content type used in Jena for sparql results, this PR is aimed at easing working with large sparql result sets by having streaming working out-of-the-box.

The implementation used by jena so far loaded json sparql result sets into memory first.


The JSON format itself allows for repeated keys (where the last one takes precedence) and keys may appear in any order - these things introduce a certain variety in how sparql result sets can be represented and that needs to be handled correctly by the implementation.


While the new implementation already succeeds on all existing jena tests, there is still the risk of breaking existing implementations that rely on certain behavior of the non-streaming approach.


Therefore, if you think this change might (negatively) affect you then please provide feedback on the proposed PR.


Best regards,

Claus Stadler
