Release because ... it's been a while
CVE-2017-18926 fixed in commit 590681e546cd9aa18d57dc2ea1858cb734a3863f
CVE-2020-25713 fixed in commit 4f5dbbffcc1c6cf0398bd03450453289a0979dea
Issues Fixed:
The Turtle parser was improved to process input in chunks, rather
than all in one step (with a large memory buffer). This allows
Turtle to read and parse files much larger than the system memory; it
splits the inputs after the end of a turtle "sentence" that ends in a
.. Includes memory usage minimizing with AVLTree
pruning during serializing and addition of turtle serializer flush
implementation.
This improvment across multiple patches was contributed by
Sebastian Freundt. Thanks

This release mainly made general bug fixes as well as several
fixes to the Turtle / N-Triples family of parsers and serializers. It
added utility functions for re-entrant sorting of objects and
sequences and a few other useful methods.
Issues Fixed:
Fixed raptor_grddl_filter_triples() check for three
URIs which has been broken since 2007 but just did more work. Found
via gcc5 warning.
The TRiG parser now accepts \r newlines between the graph name and the following '{'. Fixes Issue #0000584
Turtle, TRiG, N-Triples and N-Quads parsers now check escapes correctly for URI strings. \t \b \n \r \f are forbidden. Check that raw ' ' or \u0020, \u003C or \u003E are also not accepted. Fixes Issue #0000577
N-Triples / N-Quads parsers nwo accept '_' as an alias for '-' in lang strings. '_' is not legal. Fixes Issue #0000574
Updated RDFa parser (librdfa) to support full URLs for
typeof from upstream. Re-checked several tests which
have been passing for some time but the expected output was not a
correct conversion from the testsuite sparql.
Turtle serializer now writes () instead of
rdf:nil via
Pull Request #16
from Richard H. McCullough. Thanks!
raptor_iostream_decimal_write() and
raptor_iostream_hexadecimal_write now return non-0 if
they do not succeed in writing successfully.
Fixes Issue #0000575
raptor_new_term_from_blank() now also accepts "" as
the same as a NULL blank node ID argument.
Fixed raptor_uri_counted_filename_to_uri_string() to
use the passed in len, not look for end NUL char and count lengths.
Fixes Issue #0000576.
raptor_new_uri_from_counted_string() no longer
assumes a NUL terminated string. Remove a debug assert and use
fwrite() to emit the counted URI string to the debug
file handler.
Fixed raptor_uri_normalize_path() to check the size of
output buffer is big enough.
Fixed raptor_turtle_writer_quoted_counted_string() to
use the passed in length, drop the strlen() call and use
the length internally.
Fixes Issue #0000576.
Added raptor_world_get_parsers_count()
and raptor_world_get_serializers_count()
with patch from Victor Porton. Thanks!
Fixes Issue #0000581.
Made raptor work with Travis CI again; have to download and install Bison 3.
Added raptor_sort_r() and
raptor_sequence_sort_r() re-entrant sort utility methods
based on the public domain sort_r code by Isaac
Turner.
Ensure raptor_locator_format() always adds a NUL to
terminate the output string.
Fix a -99 <= var <= 99 timezone interval check. Thanks to Richard Trieu for the report.
Improve configure warning check using AC_LANG_WERROR
Use C99 __FUNCTION__ replacing __func__
from C90.
Improve build-time flex and bison output to be more silent.
Added Intel C compiler (icc) support from Sebastian Freundt (hroptatyr on GitHub) - Thanks.
Many code quality fixes from clang and coverity primarily in error path cleanups (out of memory cases) and dead code.
Turtle 1.1 parser: fixes about triple quoting alignment with SPARQL from the www-rdf-comments list post REC report of problem and expected answer.
Fixed RDFa 1.0 and RDFa 1.1 test suites to properly report failures.
Updated the fix-flex and fix-bison scripts to remove dead code that clang and coverity complain about.
Issues Fixed:
The N-Triples / N-Quads parser was updated to allow ' in URIs. Fixes Issue #0000562.
Use the discovery of the xml2-config(1) /
curl-config(1) programs as test for presence of the
libraries. This fixes the issue where that after configuring, curl
was present but was not used for WWW fetching. This is seen when
the output of curl-config --cflags is empty / whitespace.
Updated to use the AC_CHECK_PROGS macro to find jing
since AC_CHECK_PROG doesn't default to setting it as
found when present!
The Turtle and parsedate parsers and the turtle lexer were updated to use and require Bison 3.0.0.
The JSON and turtle writers were updated to save several expensive
strlen() calls.
The N-Triples / N-Quads parser was updated to pass all the two test suites for the updated specifications:
The main fixes were:
\b and \f escapes (from Turtle, SPARQL)Added raptor_new_term_from_counted_string() to
create a term from a Turtle or N-Triples string syntax. This is
the opposite of raptor_term_to_turtle_counted_string()
and raptor_term_to_turtle_string() and also reads the
strings created by raptor_term_to_counted_string() and
raptor_term_to_string().
Issues Fixed:
N-Triples parser was updated to support all of
RDF 1.1
N-Triples - A line-based syntax for an RDF graph (aka N-Triples 2013)
It now supports # comments after the end of
lines, checks for illegal unicode escapes, checks for bad URIs and
checks language tags.
Also removed support for legacy N-Triples
"foo"-LANGTOKEN.
Many internal changes were also made.
RDF/XML parser fixed the XML Canonicalization so that it writes the XML attributes in sorted order. Fixes Issue #0000554.
Added raptor_uri_uri_string_is_absolute() to
check if a URI is absolute.
Added raptor_qname_format_as_xml() to turn a qname
into an XML declaration.
Restructured code to build an internal librdfa convenience library (never installed) so that newer automake will stop moaning about subdir-objects.
configure now checks for clang to correctly find
supported warnings.
Various portability and build fixes (Daniel Richard G)
Build fixes: make check will now work if jing is not
installed (for feed XML generation validation).
Fixed a few issues found with LLVM 3.4 (SVN) run with address sanitizing.
Issues Fixed:
Turtle parser was updated to handle Turtle Terse RDF Triple Language W3C Candidate Recommendation 19 February 2013 (Turtle 2013) The main changes were to align with SPARQL-style blank node names, prefixes and local names.
N-Triples parser was updated to handle N-Triples - A line-based syntax for an RDF graph W3C Working Group Note 09 April 2013 (N-Triples 2013) The main changes were to allow \b \f, UTF-8 in strings and URIs and the SPARQL-style blank node names.
RDF/XML parser updated to understand the new RDF 1.1 datatypes: rdf:HTML and rdf:langString
Updated N-Triples and Turtle serializers (via writers) for 2013 versions based on SPARQL 1.1 definitions. These new formats have incompatible changes.
Added functions for writing escaped Turtle / N-Triples terms:
int raptor_string_escaped_write(const unsigned char *string, size_t len, const char delim, unsigned int flags, raptor_iostream *iostr); int raptor_term_escaped_write(const raptor_term *term, unsigned int flags, raptor_iostream* iostr); int raptor_uri_escaped_write(raptor_uri* uri, raptor_uri* base_uri, unsigned int flags, raptor_iostream *iostr);
These uses the new new raptor_escaped_write_bitflags
enum bitflag values for the flags argument.
Deprecated raptor_string_python_write() for
raptor_string_escaped_write() with flags.
configure now recommends flex 2.5.36
configure was updated to switch configuring libxml
and libcurl to use the PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG and
PKG_CHECK_MODULES macros. The preference remains to
prefer looking for the xml2-config and curl-config programs before
trying pkg-config unless --with-curl-config=no
--with-xml2-config=no are used.
configure now dies if xml2-config or xslt-config
point at non executable files. Patch from Michael Stahl - thanks.
Fixes Issue #0000534
configure now adds curl or libxml pkg-config requires
only if they were found via pkg-config; this prevents unnecessary
dependency on pkg-config files if they are not needed.
Updated autogen.sh and code to handle variations of header macro. Fixes Issue #0000532
Issues Fixed:
RDFa parser: Handle non-namespaced elements without crash in RDFa. Fixes Issue #0000521
Turtle Parser: Added full support for Turtle Terse RDF Triple Language W3C Candidate Recommendation 19 February 2013
This includes accepting new keywords from SPARQL
(BASE and PREFIX), triples forms and
details of the characters allowed in URIs, Literals, Prefix Names,
Local Names and Blank Node identifiers. Some existing documents that
used \-escapes in URIs to encode characters not allowed
in URIs, are now forbidden. For example ASCII 32 (0x20) - space,
which should be written as %20.
Turtle Serializer: Added full support for Turtle Terse RDF Triple Language W3C Candidate Recommendation 19 February 2013 which particular effects the encoding of URIs in the serializer.
Added CMake build framework for building Raptor on Microsoft
Windows. Removed the old win32/ area and
win32_raptor_config.h references. Contributed by Daniel
Richard G. for Teragram Inc.
Ensure that a small system BUFSIZ does not affect parser guessing Patch from Daniel Richard G for Teragram Inc.
Added a compile-time check for
raptor_world_guess_parser_name() to ensure that
RAPTOR_READ_BUFFER_SIZE is at least as large as
FIRSTN, because otherwise the guesser sees fewer than
FIRSTN bytes from the document. Patch from Daniel
Richard G for Teragram Inc.
Update configure to allow xml2-config and curl-config
to work for libxml and libcurl. It now report on the source of xml, curl
libraries in the configuration status.
autogen.sh updates to abort the run if a configuring
program fails, Generate NEWS with old timestamp if missing so
automake can run.
Handle the libxml2 ret->checked field not being
present in older libxml2 versions. The entities checked field was
added 2006-10-10 in libxml2 GIT commit a37a6ad91a61d168ecc4b29263def3363fff4da6and
released in libxml2 2.6.27 on 2006-10-25.
Fixes Issue #0000520
raptor_www_set_ssl_verify_options() now supports the
Curl 7.28.1 removal of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST with a
value of 2. Now verify_host non-0 means to verify CN, 0
means to not verify.
Remove -m MODE from the rapper(1) help
message which was removed in commit
f94fa561db05b21132b14a2b72f05b77e666c252 on Wed Apr 28 21:31:54 2010
-0700 as part of the Raptor V2 work.
Issues Fixed:
Guessing a parser with
raptor_world_guess_parser_name() now returns NULL failure
when the guess is very poor, rather just return the first bad result.
Fixes
Issue #0000487
which was reported in Redland librdf but
is implemented here.
Guess parser: now returns error file and line location information from the guessed parser.
RDFa parser: Updated librdfa to the latest GIT supporting RDFa 1.1 with 30 tests still not passing - mostly issues in the core librdfa. Made several resilience and crash fixes. Updated the RDFa 1.0 test suite to latest tests and made fixes. The RDFa parser now accepts aliases 'rdfa10', 'rdfa11' and the default 'rdfa' is RDFa 1.1
RSS tag soup parser: Use time() when
gettimeofday() is not available. Fix several reference
leaks.
RDF/XML parser: The range of RDF/XML entity recognizing heuristic was broadened to allow recognition of documents produced by Stanford's Protege software (and possibly others). Fixed some parser memory leaks / double frees.
Turtle parser: Do not report multiple errors for Turtle string decoding problems. When a Turtle qname cannot be found, a fatal error is no longer generated but a regular error message giving information on the qname that failed (usually due to unknown prefix). Fixes Issue #0000507
raptor_sax2_inscope_xml_language() will now return ""
for explicit no language (xml:lang="") as well as NULL
for undefined language (no xml:lang present).
Turtle: Do not emit a Turtle (...) collection if the
list item is a URI. This fixes
Issue #0000381.
Added raptor_term_to_turtle_counted_string() counted
string form of raptor_term_to_turtle_string.
raptor_unicode_utf8_string_put_char() and
raptor_unicode_utf8_string_get_char()
now allow reading / writing U+D800 to U+DFFF (UTF-16 surrogates).
rather than returning failure. BOMs remain forbidden - definitely not UTF-8.
Fixes Issue #0000505
Fixed URI resolving with reference (relative) URIs that are bare queries like '?y' with no path. Now matches the specification RFC3986 section 5.4.1 Normal Examples.
Added raptor_new_uri_relative_to_base_counted()
to construct URI relative to current base.
Added raptor_uri_to_turtle_counted_string() counted
string form of raptor_uri_to_turtle_string.
The Curl WWW implementation now interprets
Content-Locationcode> header as absolute or relative URI.
All configure --with-foo options now handle --without-foo (and --with-foo=no) to disable attempting to find the value in the PATH. This can be used with --with-xml2-config, --with-xslt-config, --with-curl-config, --with-icu-config and --with-libwww-config where the value 'no' or --without-foo can be used to disable it and prevent automatic searches for the config script in the PATH.
The -DRAPTOR_DEBUG and -DMAINTAINER_MODE
flags are now written to the config header instead of added to
CPPFLAGS.
The -g flag is no longer added to CFLAGS or CPPFLAGS
with --enable-debug.
The existing --disable-release (default) now
correctly removes -O options in flag variables for the maintainer.
autogen.sh now looks for the environment variable
NOCONFIGURE to prevent it running configure at the end
of the auto generation run.
The configure vsnprintf() check was made more
comprehensive.
Multiple portability improvements to vsnprintf code and macros. Also fixed uninitialized variable problems in non-c99 variant of raptor_vsnprintf2(). Thanks to John Emmas for reporting.
Multiple portability fixes for building out of the source tree. Out of source tree 'make check' and 'make dist' should both work. Thanks to Daniel Richard G. for the patches.
Multiple portability fixes for building on old Solaris versions. Thanks to Daniel Richard G. for the patches.
Multiple portability fixes for building on Windows including strcasecmp(), windows headers, configuration fixes, parsedate code, URI test builds, vsnprintf building. Thanks to Daniel Richard G. for the patches.
Updated the example rdfguess to accept a file called
or no arguments to read from stdin.
CVE-2012-0037 fixed
Issues Fixed:
Removed Expat support since expat has not had a release in years
and libxml2 works well. This allows some code simplification.
Updated configure so that if Raptor is configured with
no parser that requires an XML parser, libxml2 will not be required.
Removed internal Unicode NFC checking code used for checking RDF/XML literals conformance which was expensive to check and a large of compiled-in static dataset that was rather out of date. Replaced with optional compiled use of ICU. If ICU is not explicitly configured, no literal checking is done.
Added new options:
RAPTOR_OPTION_NO_FILERAPTOR_OPTION_LOAD_EXTERNAL_ENTITIESRAPTOR_OPTION_WWW_SSL_VERIFY_PEERRAPTOR_OPTION_WWW_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTThe RDF/XML, RSS Tag Soup and RDFa parsers now pass on network, file and entity loading parser options to the internal SAX2 to enable enforcing of network, file and entity loading policy.
RDF/JSON parser handles an API change between YAJL V1 and V2.
Turtle parser now returns parser errors to
raptor_parse_chunk().
Fixes Issue #0000488
Added raptor_sax2_set_uri_filter() to set a URI
filter for any SAX2 calls that do internal lookups of URIs.
Control file and network loading inside SAX2. Option
RAPTOR_OPTION_LOAD_EXTERNAL_ENTITIES now enforces
loading external XML entities and is by default enabled. If enabled,
RAPTOR_OPTION_NO_FILE and
RAPTOR_OPTION_NO_NET are also checked. All URIs loaded
are also passed through any URI filter, if set by
raptor_sax2_set_uri_filter().
Added new URI constructor
raptor_new_uri_from_uri_or_file_string()
to build a URI from a URI string or a filename string, normalizing
the result to a file: URI.
Added
raptor_uri_uri_string_to_counted_filename_fragment() to
turn a URI string to a filename and URI fragment along with string
output string counts.
Added utility methods for checking if a file: URI or filename is a
file that exists:
raptor_uri_file_exists() and
raptor_uri_filename_exists()
Added raptor_www_set_ssl_verify_options() to set SSL
verify options.
Fixes Issue# 0000469.
The raptor_www_fetch() call now returns the status
from any URI filter that returns a non-0 response.
Added --with-icu-config=PATH option
to enable use of ICU for NFC checking.
Requires automake 1.11.2+ for -Wextra-portability
configure uses AM_PROG_AR to make
automake -Wextra-portability happy.
Fixed expat support which was broken in 2.0.5
Handle libCurl SSL options before 7.16.4 (that's 2007) since old libcurl is still around on Enterprise (that means old) linux systems.
Added utility functions to swap elements, reverse the sequence and generate permuations:
int raptor_sequence_swap(raptor_sequence* seq,
int i, int j);
int raptor_sequence_reverse(raptor_sequence* seq,
int start_index, int length);
int raptor_sequence_next_permutation(raptor_sequence *seq,
raptor_data_compare_handler compare);
Issues Fixed:
Updated all parser URIs to use the W3C Format URIs as the primary URIs. Existing URIs become aliases. (Nicholas J Humfrey)
GRDDL parser: Correctly set the base_uri when resolving the sheet URI.
N-Quads parser: Make context optional. (Lauri Aalto)
Fixes
Issue #0000479.
When guessing formats, make N-Quads always beat N-Triples since
since now all ntriples parse fine with the nquads parser. (Lauri Aalto)
RDFA parser: fix when building with 64-bit systems to prevent value truncation.
Turtle parser: now uses the official text/turtle mime type in the syntax recognizing code.
Updated all serializer URIs to use the W3C Format URIs as the primary URIs. Existing URIs become aliases. (Nicholas J Humfrey)
Turtle serializer now uses the official text/turtle mime type in the syntax recognizing code. Do not generate infinite output when the input Unicode UTF-8 encoding is bad. Fixes Issue #000481.
Added new utility functions for calculating number of Unicode
characters in a UTF-8
string raptor_unicode_utf8_strlen() and getting a subset
of a UTF-8 string raptor_unicode_utf8_substr():
int raptor_unicode_utf8_strlen(const unsigned char *string,
size_t length);
size_t raptor_unicode_utf8_substr(
unsigned char* dest, size_t* dest_length_p,
const unsigned char* src, size_t src_length,
int startingLoc, int length);
raptor_uri_string_to_relative_uri_string() now
compares URI paths not files. (Joe Presbrey)
Fixes Issue #0000472
The library no longer needs trunc(),
lround(), round() or anything else from
libm. Removed the checks for these functions from
configure.
configure no longer enables debug messages by default
for --enable-maintainer-mode but now requires the
--enable-debug option to be given.
Records GIT version in the version string when building from GIT
sources with --enable-maintainer-mode. This makes it
clearer when an non-released version is being used.
Added internal raptor_format_integer() which enabled
the removal of all internal use of snprintf().
Added raptor_vsnprintf2() deprecating
raptor_vsnprintf() which does not actually have the
vsnprintf() calling contention. Added raptor_snprintf()
with snprintf() calling convention. Added
raptor_vasprintf() with vasprintf() (GNU) calling
convention.
int raptor_vsnprintf2(char *buffer, size_t size,
const char *format, va_list arguments);
int raptor_snprintf(char *buffer, size_t size, const char *format, ...);
int raptor_vasprintf(char **ret, const char *format, va_list arguments);
raptor_locator_format() now picks a large enough
buffer size if snprintf() is likely not portable, when
HAVE_C99_VSNPRINTF is not defined.
Fixes Issue #0000465
Internal code style changes for how allocation is done and casting with new macros.
RAPTOR_GOOD_CAST: code checks or logic ensures cast will not truncate
RAPTOR_BAD_CAST: value may be truncated; may require API change/break. Might be unrealistic e.g. a >4G error message, qname prefix.
Some good uses:
- narrowing a known, checked unicode char to a U16
Some 'bad' uses:
- only handing error messages, literal language, qname prefixes of a max len constrained by int
- passing in data to libxml constrained by int max len
- locator column field constrained to int size
Some bad uses:
- iostream read_bytes and write-bytes methods return int but could easily return a lot more in the size_t range (compare to fread). API change needed.
- locator byte field constrained to int size. should be size_t
- raptor_nfc_check returns int offset into a buffer that could be larger
- raptor_ntriples_parser_context changed line_length and offset to size_t
- raptor_turtle_parser changed buffer_length to size_t
Updated code to use size_t for sizes such as those
from strlen() and ptrdiff_t for pointer
differences so that on 64-bit architectures, values are not
potentially truncated to size of int.
Issues Fixed:
The raptor_option enumeration gains values for
setting SSL client side certificates:
RAPTOR_OPTION_WWW_CERT_FILENAME for the certificate
filename, RAPTOR_OPTION_WWW_CERT_TYPE for the
certificate type and RAPTOR_OPTION_WWW_CERT_PASSPHRASE
for the certificate passphrase.
raptor_parser_parse_uri_with_connection() (which is
called by raptor_parse_uri()) now uses
raptor_www_set_ssl_cert_options() to turn the parser
options above into settings on the WWW object.
RDF/JSON parser: Gains support for building with YAJL V2. Note that YAJL V1 and V2 both install the same library name 'libyajl' even though they have different ABI and APIs.
TRiG parser: Fixed to support the legal uri :
{ ... } syntax naming a graph where the
':' is optional.
Turtle parser: Modified to not include the internal
input() function in the lexer which is never needed.
N-Triples and Turtle serializers: Now
use raptor_bnodeid_ntriples_write() to always write
legal blank node IDs.
Added support for raptor_www to handle setting SSL
client certificate options during WWW retrieval.
Added raptor_www_set_ssl_cert_options() method to set
the SSL client certificates on a WWW object.
Make Raptor build against Curl 7.21.7 which removed a header file that was made an empty file in the libcurl source code on April 26 2004 around version 7.12.0 which is now the minimum version Raptor supports..
Fixed an AVL Tree issue during deletion that messes up some pointers. Patch from 'v-for-vandal'. Thanks.
Added a utility function
raptor_bnodeid_ntriples_write() to write a N-Triples
blank node ID in legal form, replacing any letters not in the allowed
set.
Expanded GCC warnings and corrected a few internal uses
of int when size_t was meant. Others
remain.
Reduced stack use of raptor_www_file_handle_fetch()
and raptor_parser_parse_iostream() by moving I/O buffer
to the www or parser objects respectively.
The main change is to add the new main header file
raptor2.h. The new header has been added to allow
applications to be sure they have got the raptor V2 header
(with #include <raptor2.h> and not the raptor V1
header file (#include <raptor.h>).
The raptor.h header will NOT be removed until the next
major raptor release (V3).
Alter the parser to not use a large token stack when parsing TRiG graphs, enabling the parser to handle much larger files. The parser still gathers all input into a single memory segment so the maximum amount of input is probably memory size/3.
TRiG parser now allows a QName for the graph name.
Attempted to make the parser handle streaming lexing and parsing but only partially successful; bison could be made to stream parse but flex could not be made to stream lex. This meant it could not be convinced to return a "need more input" response at the end of a chunk of data and continue lexing later.
Fix value ownership fix graph name. Fixes Issue #0000437
Raptor was ran through the LLVM clang static code analyzer and several issues fixed, mostly in unused variables and in unlikely error recovery conditions. Some actual potential crash bugs were found:
raptor_libxml_xmlStructuredError_handler_parsing()
was broken for some time, so that probably means nobody uses old
libxml2.rdfa_resolve_uri() used unallocated
memory in some relative URI cases.Bison 2.4 is required to build Raptor from GIT source with no pregenerated files.
Fixed a too strict version checking bug in raptor_new_world()
DO NOT USE. Use 2.0.2 which fixes a too strict version
checking bug in raptor_new_world()
The internal librdfa parser that uses Raptor internals now exports symbols prefixed with raptor_librdfa so that Raptor can be linked with the standard librdfa in applications without symbol clashes. Fixes Issue #0000416
The N-Quads serializer was fixed to output the graph name in the fourth column, instead of repeating the object.
Replaced all internal fatal errors that went to
an abort() with regular logged error.
Raptor V2 final release. See the release notes for 1.9.0 and 1.9.1 for the major changes in Raptor V2.
Added raptor_syntax_description_validate() to public
API to validate and compute counts for syntax descriptions.
Primarily this is for use by Rasqal.
The raptor_syntax_description now has an array of URI
strings instead of a single one, to allow URI aliasing. This is
primarily for use by Rasqal.
Fixed guessing by URI in
raptor_world_guess_parser_name() which was not
working.
Fixed Issues:
1.9.1 is the second beta release of Raptor 2 and intended to be the last release before 2.0.0.
Improved the upgrade-script.pl raptor V1 to V2
upgrade script to handle changes to enums and macros as well as
handle statement field renaming. Updated the generated documentation
to also include enum and macro changes.
Added defensive code in each constructor to check the passed-in raptor world object is a valid Raptor V2 world rather than V1. It generates a warning once per run of the program.
The raptor_new_world() function is now a macro that
calls an internal function raptor_check_world_internal()
with a version macro argument to detect when Raptor V2 is invoked with
an inconsistent header and library.
Free the iterator at the end of debug method
raptor_avltree_print().
Fix major copying too much error in the internal
raptor_read_string_iostream_read_bytes() memcpy that
could cause crashes - the function always copied the maximum amount
the user requested in the read method even if the string was
smaller.
JSON parser: Made relative URIs option work.
N-Quads parser: Added. The serializer already existed.
librdfa parser: Updated to latest librdfa GIT 1a1a08c790b7649a7f6c12fb9e40c0d3dbe70481
Fix raptor_serializer_start_to_iostream() to prevent
crash when this method is used more than once on the same
serializer.
RSS/Atom serializer: Fix crashes with feeds containing entries with blank node items.
Added utility methods
raptor_stringbuffer_append_uri_escaped_counted_string()
and raptor_stringbuffer_append_hexadecimal().
Deleted raptor_term_as_counted_string() and
raptor_term_as_string(). Since 1.9.0 was an unstable
API, this is allowed.
Added raptor_term_to_counted_string() replacing
deleted raptor_term_as_counted_string().
Added raptor_term_to_string() replacing
deleted raptor_term_as_string().
Added convenience methods for constructing URI terms from strings:
raptor_new_term_from_counted_uri_string() and
raptor_new_term_from_uri_string().
Use string lengths in equals and comparisons for faster checking.
Use memcmp() instead of strncmp() when
lengths are known and the same.
The CURL WWW module now looks for and uses the HTTP response
Content-Location: header to get the base URI for content
retrievals. This allows these base URIs to be used in parsing
content retrived from URIs.
Fixes Issue #0000402
1.9.0 is the first beta release of Raptor 2. There may be changes and additional releases before version 2.0.0 with the final stable API.
This is a major update and cleanup to the Raptor API and ABI with additions, removals and changes. There are also major restructurings of the internal code and cleanups. There are also some new features in the form of additional APIs, new serializers and parsers.
The details of the additions, removals and changes of functions, structures, typedefs and enums are listed in the Raptor 2 API reference manual section on Changes between raptor 1.4.21 and 1.9.0. The upgrading document explains how to upgrade existing code that uses the V1 APIs to use the new APIs.
The major changes in this release are:
raptor_class_method form.raptor_world argument.Fixed Issues:
Renamed the library name and package tarball name to a new
separate names (libraptor2, raptor2-X.tar.gz) so they can be
distinguished and installed into the same system as raptor 1 without
file clashes. Note: This does not apply to the
rapper(1) utility and it's manual page which are in both
packages. Packagers should stop packaging the rapper(1)
binary and the rapper manual page from raptor 1, in preference to the
raptor 2 version.
Nicholas J Humfrey is a new committer.
A utility script docs/upgrade-script.pl is
automatically generated from the changes data to aid migrating from
Raptor 1 to Raptor 2 APIs. If it is not a simple rename, the script
annotates the change as a comment near the code.
Raptor's Statement, Term and URI classes can fully replace
librdf's librdf_statement, librdf_node and
librdf_uri classes. This has been tested with GIT
versions when both Rasqal and librdf are configured with
--with-raptor2. When raptor 2 is stable, Rasqal and
librdf will default to use these..
The API reference manual now includes an automatically generated reference section on the functions and types that were added, removed and changed between raptor 1 and raptor 2 APIs. It also includes an automatically generated section on the parser and serializers with their names, mime types and Q values.
The tutorial examples were updated to the Raptor 2 APIs.
NOTE: At this time, the descriptive parts of the tutorial have NOT been updated to use the Raptor 2 API.
A log handler function for receiving warnings and errors (fatal or
other) are now all sent to a single log handler of type
raptor_log_handler registered to the world class with
raptor_world_set_log_handler(), rather than handlers set
for each parser, sax2, serializer or www instance. Several
constructors lose error handler and error data parameters
consequently.
The enumerating approach for listing the known parsers and
serializers and writing into variables passed in, was replaced with
methods that return pointers to static
raptor_syntax_description objects to allow more
parameters to be returned. This allowed the removal of multiple
older calls that kept having to gain new return arguments.
The description also returns a list of (mime type, qname) pairs
using a new typedef raptor_type_q. It includes a set
of bitflags for some simple information such as
RAPTOR_SYNTAX_NEED_BASE_URI to describe when
a syntax requires a base URI passed in, otherwise is not needed
or optional.
raptor_world_set_libxml_flags() is replaced with
raptor_world_set_flag() which are simple flags that
require no initialisation of the world since they are used before it
is opened. This means that it cannot use the Options module for
world flags. New flag
RAPTOR_WORLD_FLAGS_URI_INTERNING allows disabling of
the URI interning using an AVL-Tree which can use up memory.
raptor_world_set_libxslt_security_preferences() and
raptor_world_set_log_handler() gains an int return value
to report failure if world is already opened.
Moved the generation of blank node IDs from the parsers (many
objects) to the world class (1 object). Cannot think of good reasons
why the blank node ID generation policy needs to be different
per-parser. Enumeration raptor_genid_type was deleted
since only the blank node type was ever used.
The internal memory-based AVL Tree implementation is exposed as a public API.
Replaced with raptor_options
Replaced with Term class.
raptor_identifier_type enum was removed and replaced
with enum raptor_term_type and a smaller set of 3
possible term types. The enum values match the int values used
in librdf_node_type.
Constructors all gain a world argument.
Some methods now return an int error status such as
raptor_iostream_write_end()
Many classes iostream writing methods and methods of the iostream
class itself were changed to follow the standard
raptor_CLASS_write naming
convention and to put the iostream argument at the end.
Deprecated typedef raptor_iostream_handler was removed
Deprecated functions were removed:
raptor_new_iostream_from_handler(),
raptor_iostream_get_bytes_written_count() and
raptor_iostream_write_string_turtle()
Renamed some methods to follow the
raptor_locator_method standard.
Constructors all gain a world argument and lose error handler, error data arguments.
A new name for what were called features in Raptor 1 and this was
expanded to allow use of values types string, integer and boolean.
Options can be set on multiple classes such as parser, serializer but
are centrally described using the new
raptor_option_description structure.
The option get / set operations were reduced from multiple methods per class for getting / setting an int, int / string to just one get and one set, with optional parameters. It can also handle adding new types later, which will be passed in as strings and converted internally.
The options code
introduces a new enum raptor_domain which essentially is
for describing a class such as parser.
For example options listed
for domain RAPTOR_DOMAIN_PARSER will be usable with the
parser option get and set methods
raptor_parser_get_option(parser, ...) and
raptor_parser_set_option(parser, ...).
raptor_parser_set_strict() was removed and replaced
with a new parser option RAPTOR_OPTION_STRICT.
Parser object methods to return information about the parser class
were removed since they can be done instead via fields of the static
object returned from
raptor_world_get_parser_description(). Deleted
functions include raptor_parser_get_label(),
raptor_parser_get_mime_type(), and
raptor_parser_get_need_base_uri().
Parsing may generate start graph and end graph events for syntaxes
that return graph names such as TRiG. These are returned by the handler
of typedef raptor_graph_mark_handler
set by new function raptor_parser_set_graph_mark_handler()
which returns a start or end event of type enum
raptor_graph_mark_flags.
raptor_parser_get_accept_header() fixed length of
static string to ensure NUL is copied.
Many functions were renamed to match the
raptor_parser_method naming standard. Some of
these get a long longer, but are at least consistent. For example
raptor_parse_uri() becomes
raptor_parser_parse_uri().
Deprecated typedef raptor_ntriples_parser was removed.
Deprecated functions were removed:
raptor_ntriples_term_as_string(), and
raptor_ntriples_string_as_utf8_string()
The librdfa parser was updated with the latest updates to the RDFa syntax (first, rel/rev, whitespace, xml:lang) and fixes issues with non-terminated strings.
The GRDDL parser now saves and restores the libxslt global state
(handlers, security preferences) so that it does not affect other
applications in the same memory space. Part of this can be
overridden with
raptor_world_set_libxslt_security_preferences() which
allows user code to disable raptor touching the security preferences
entirely.
Fixes
Issue #0000379
The RDF/XML parser never generated special names for bag IDs (bagidNNN), so all support for that has been removed.
The RDF/XML parser uses the new reference-counted URIs and raptor terms to prevent a lot of malloc/free for temporary uses.
Removed RDF/XML parser feature
RAPTOR_FEATURE_ASSUME_IS_RDF since it did nothing since
at least 2003, maybe earlier.
Added a JSON parser (name 'json') that can read both the resource-centric and triples JSON RDF formats. Requires the YAJL JSON parser library. Contributed by Nicholas J Humfrey.
Moved the generation of blank node IDs from the parsers (many objects) to the world class (1 object). Cannot think of good reasons why the blank node ID generation policy needs to be different per-parser.
Constructors all gain a world argument and lose error handler, error data arguments.
Use new generic raptor_data_free_handler,
raptor_data_print_handler,
raptor_data_context_free_handler,
raptor_data_context_print_handler
data-focused handlers which are shared with the AVL Tree.
Added raptor_serializer_flush() for user code to
indicate to a serializer to flush state since the application knows a
block has been ended, or it needs to save memory. No serializer
currently implements this, but it is expected the abbreviated
serializers that use a lot of state - Turtle, RDF/XML-Abbrev - would
benefit from this.
Added an HTML Table serializer with name 'table' contributed by Nicholas J Humfrey.
Removed the obsolete 'simple' serializer from the source code. N-Triples is an appropriate simple (and well-defined) replacement syntax.
This was made a more regular class that can be created, copied and freed using reference counting. The structure changed to be an array of 4 raptor terms rather than a complex union focused on the allowed RDF Statements. This change allows representing non-RDF triples as well as triples with named graphs (also known as quads).
raptor_statement_part_as_counted_string() turns into
a method of the new Term class, as a "statement part" is now
represented as a Term.
This new class with an open structure replaces
raptor_identifier and was created to represent an RDF
Term: literal, URI or blank node and is reference counted and
dynamic. It is a union of fields for three types.
This class can fully replace librdf's librdf_node when both Rasqal
and librdf are built with --with-raptor2. The
semantics of comparison (ordering) and equality are the same.
Several utility functions were renamed to match their
functionality more accurately and be associated with the Unicode
module set of functions. For example raptor_utf8_check()
was renamed to raptor_unicode_check_utf8_string()
The whole concept of URI handlers was removed, there is no longer a way to replace the implementation of the URI class. The implementation built in now interns URIs string so that a single URIs for a string is only ever in memory once, but reference counted. This is what Redland librdf has done for many years, and librdf can fully use this.
Deprecated functions were removed:
raptor_uri_is_file_uri().
The raptor_uri_resolve_uri_reference() now returns the
length of the URI written into the buffer.
Rename several of the functions to the standard constructor, destructor and method naming format.
Constructors all gain a world argument and lose error handler, error data arguments.
Added configure argument --with-yajl=DIR (or 'no') to
set the prefix where YAJL libraries and headers are installed.
Raptor headers are now installed in a sub-directory of
PREFIX/include.
raptor-config was removed. Building against raptor 2
should be done only using pkg-config with either
--cflags or --libs arguments like this:
cc -o prog prog.c `pkg-config raptor2 --cflags` `pkg-config raptor2 --libs`
Code style: lots of changes mostly adding lots more whitespace such as to show control change (if, while) or early function exit (return).
All strcpy() with known lengths and
strncpy() were replaced with memcpy() which
is quicker and compilers optimize better.
Code style:
use TYPE* var_name = RAPTOR_CALLOC(TYPE, 1, sizeof(*var_name))
rather than repeat the type name which can be error-prone.
Code style: put whitespace round assignment and operators i.e.
use c = a + b rather than c=a+b.
Code style: removed some strdup()s.
Code style: try to remove un-necessary strlen() by
tending to pass around a string with it's length, a counted string.
This meant adding a few new constructors such as for the URI and Term
classes.
Code style: methods called with a NULL object return failure
and destructors called with a NULL object return silently rather than
the former mix of crashing or abort()ing.
Code style: copy constructor is now called
raptor_class_copy() rather than
raptor_new_class_from_class()
for brevity.
Code style: print methods return an int return status indicating success.
Print out the option types next to the description in the -f
help usage message.
Removed unused -a flag from code.
Did NOT rename -f option to match the renaming of
features to options in the API. Not needed.
Removed long deprecated -n flag which was shortcut for
selecting the N-Triples parser and can be done with -i ntriples
Removed -s/--scan flag since it is an option of a
single parser (RDF/XML) which can be done with -f/--feature
scanForRDF.
Removed support for building raptor with dmalloc debugging
(removing --with-dmalloc configure argument). Valgrind
wins.
The example 'grapper' GNOME GUI utility for raptor was updated to the latest GTK APIs (2.5.0+ but still quite old) so that it builds with all the GTK 'disable deprecated' flags set. The UI is not quite correct though - the preferences menu is broken.
Switched to GIT version control, hosted by GitHub. The latest raptor 1 code is available on branch 'raptor1' as well as from the release tags for specific versions.
This is a bug fix only release with no new features. New development has moved to raptor 2 where a planned ABI and API break is underway.
Fixed Issues:
N-Triples parser: Declare acceptance of text/plain mime type with q=0.1
RDFA parser (via librdfa): Updated to fix some buffer management problems when it was passed large blocks (4096 bytes or more), a few memory leaks and some other minor bugs.
RDF/XML parser: Properly reset the ID-checking set at the start of each parse.
Turtle parser: Allow \\ at the end of triple-quoted literals. Forbid '.'s in prefixes and qnames (follow specification). Properly count newlines inside the literals for error reporting.
Turtle serializer: Forbid '.'s in prefixes and qnames (follow specification).
Updated configure and the build system to use silent
rules for the maintainer (by default), or when
--enable-silent-rules is passed to
configure. This feature requires building with automake
1.11 which requires autoconf 2.62 or newer when building from GIT.
autogen.sh script was updated to enforce the
autotools versions above.
This is a bug fix only release with no new features. New development has moved to raptor 2 where a planned ABI and API break will happen. There may be preview releases of raptor 2 with 1.9.x numbering.
Fixed Issues:
GRDDL parser: Fix XML parser context resource leak if
raptor_grddl_fetch_uri() fails. Save and restore error
handlers properly to prevent crashes when an error is reported during
parsing.
RDFA parser (via librdfa): Update to latest librdfa GIT sources with head
a438ce68a40e04b399ec2b2c613d0c867d9315c7
now moved to
https://github.com/msporny/librdfa
to fix handling single character namespaces
(Issue #0000310),
empty datatype attribute and empty xml:lang attributes
(Issue #0000306)
Added three unapproved RDFa tests 0172, 0173 and 0174 to cover the fixes above.
Turtle serializer:
Applied scalability patch from Chris Cannam.
This switches the serializer to use a raptor_avltree
instead of a raptor_sequence for the subject and blanks
used with raptor_abbrev_node_lookup(). This fixes a
performance problem in the serializing and moves lookups from O(N) to
O(log N) - from list to balanced tree.
If cross compiling, check for vsnprintf() C99 compatible at
runtime by setting define CHECK_VSNPRINTF_RUNTIME during
configuration.
Fixes Issue #0000307
Use calloc() for allocating a raptor_statement in
rdfserializer.c example code to properly initialise state.
Fixes Issue #0000312
Use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to get large file IO checks which
allows 32-bit systems to read multi-gigabyte files.
autogen.sh script fix for if test when uname is not in
standard OSX dir.
WARNING: FUTURE ABI and API CHANGES. The next release of raptor 1.4.x will include bug fixes only and no new features. New development will move to raptor 2 where a planned ABI and API break will happen. There may be preview releases of raptor 2 with 1.9.x numbering.
Fixed Issues:
raptor_new_uri() fails in Turtle parserraptor_parse_chunk() on a buffer string, where it should be called on a null-terminating string.raptor_sequence_set_at() when setting beyond endraptor_sax2_parse_chunk() calling raptor_log_error_to_handlers() with expatxsltSetDefaultSecurityPrefs()xmlSetStructuredErrorFunc() and xmlSetGenericErrorFunc()raptor_get_feature() now returns the integer value rather than
just 1 or 0.
Issue #0000288
Guess parser: return name of guessed parser not 'guess'.
N-Triples parser:
Produce error messages when raptor_new_uri() fails.
Issue #0000262
RDFa parser:
Fix problem when there is a subject and predicate specified on an
element, but no child nodes for the object literal using
latest librdfa GIT source with head
2ddcb3f9e010d0b3d9ee546e807539be5da1b14a
Issue #0000289
RSS tag soup parser:
Huge internal changes:
Recording more atom core structures in triples (such as author, contributor -
person) rather than only channels and items
Introduced a new 'blocks' concept to record single element structured
items such as atom category, link and rss enclosure
Added itunes namespace and container.
RDF/XML Parser:
Adjust predicate_type when removing ordinal identifier type from predicate.
Issue #0000293
Atom 1.0 serializer: Now tested and takes more care to try to generate valid Atom 1.0
Turtle serializer:
Validate XSD integer, decimal and double literal
output. Emit special short forms only if the whole literal value is
consumed by strtol() (for integers) or
strtod() (for decimals and doubles). Otherwise produce a
warning and emit literal in the normal
"value"^^<datatype_uri> format.
Issue #0000263
Fix broken collection abbreviation
Issue #0000277
RSS serializer:
Fixes for g++
Issue #0000270
Added a new serializer feature
RAPTOR_FEATURE_PREFIX_ELEMENTS (short name
prefixElements) for atom and rss 1.0 serializers to decide whether
core elements in the default namespace are declared with the prefix
or without a prefix.
Removed generation of deprecated predicate ordinals of type
RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_ORDINAL and replace with resource type URIs
Removed generic calls to xmlSetStructuredErrorFunc()
and xmlSetGenericErrorFunc() which can be a problem when
libxml is shared with other code in memory. They may be called
optionally but will do a save/restore of the existing functions.
This protection is enabled by the new API call
raptor_set_libxml_flags() to set the flags from values
in enum raptor_libxml_flags.
Issue #0000299
Use context-specific libslt security configuration to avoid
calling generic call xsltSetDefaultSecurityPrefs() which
can be a problem when libxslt is shared with other code in memory.
Allow the user to set the policy for raptor globally with new API
function raptor_set_libxslt_security_preferences().
Issue #0000296
Make libxml SAX2 structured errors register parser-specific
handler function raptor_libxml_xmlStructuredErrorFunc()
instead of libxml global structured error handler. The libxml flag
method above can still enable registerding the global error handlers.
In raptor_sax2_parse_chunk() fixed calls to
raptor_log_error_to_handlers() when built with expat.
Issue #0000287
Win32 portability fixes from Lou Sakey:
gettimeofday()xmlCleanupParser() libxml call last to avoid an access
violation on windows.vsnprintf() portability patchraptor_sequence_set_at() fixed to maintain the design
contract: provide "size" consecutive items in "sequence" starting from
"start" even when setting items more than +1 offset beyond the end of
sequence. rapper(1) utility changes: if counting, do not use a
serializer at all.
More internal changes to be more resiliant after allocation failure (Lauri Aalto)
Reorganised tests in source tree to pull out specific directories for RDF/XML, Turtle, etc.
Use a DJ Bernstein hash to replace a linked list for storing a
stack of namespaces. This makes turtle parsing with lots of
namespaces (100s) much faster. Based on the initial patch in the bug.
Issue #0000290
Use new internal raptor_memstr() function to compare
a string against a buffer that may not be NUL terminated.
Issue #0000269
raptor_error_handlers: API structure gains world
field. BINARY COMPATIBILITY BREAK: sizeof(raptor_error_handlers)
changed. Source compatibility not broken.
raptor_identifier: API structure gains world
field. BINARY COMPATIBILITY BREAK: sizeof(raptor_identifier)
changed. Source compatibility not broken.
More fixes for compiling with C++
Move some more static data as constant to enable more efficient compilation - moves to data segment of object binary.
Use memmove for overlapping copy, not memcpy when doing relative URI resolving.
Lots of internal changes were made by Lauri Aalto preparing for
Raptor V2 to fully attach all static data and config to a new
raptor_world object. A new static instance of this
class is now used internally behind the existing V1 API and will be
required to be constructed by the library user for the V2 API with a
new constructor/destructor.
NOTE: The method names here are illustrative of the final
V2 names but are not confirmed - These functions are not
supported in the 1.4.x series. Some methods will still be
altered for fields and (raptor_world) parameters. All constructors
should have it as a parameter. All methods will not have them (so
for example, all the URI methods named _v2 will lose the world
parameter and just have the URI parameter - but that is also because
the URI handler/context part will go into raptor_world in V2)
To use the unsupported and experimental V2
functions, define -DRAPTOR_V2_EXPERIMENTAL=1 when
building with raptor.
Added raptor_world typedef.
Added raptor world class constructor

Fixed Issues:
A new
RDFa
parser was added (name rdfa) using
librdfa to
implement it. librdfa is linked as part of Raptor and
written by Manu Sporny of Digital Bazaar, licensed with the
same license as Raptor.
The RDFa test suite was added to the test and (via librdfa) Raptor passes all but 4 tests which fail due to different output xmlns attribute ordering (which does not matter to XML parsers).
Added new function
raptor_serialize_start_to_iostream() to have the new
semantics of not owning and destroying the passed-in iostream. This
allows the caller to serialize to an existing iostream and then
to continue to write to it. raptor_serialize_start()
owns and then closes the iostream that is passed in.
A new Atom Syndication Format 1.0 (RFC 4287) serializer was added (name atom)
using the RSS 1.0 RDF triple model with mapping to atom terms
and consideration of atom output format conditions.
RSS 1.0 serializer
parseType="Literal" or when content:encoded,
as a CDATA block, by RSS 1.0 convention.Turtle serializer now respects the writeBaseURI
feature to control generating the @base directive.
Abbreviated serializers (RDF/XML Abbrev and Turtle) now remove duplicate triples.
Added feature RAPTOR_FEATURE_RSS_TRIPLES to add RDF
triples to RSS 1.0 or Atom serializer output with values 'rdfxml' or
'atom-triples'. Atom triples writes at:map sections for
the atom:entry elements and at:feedmap and
at:entrymap sections to the atom:feed
elements. at:contentType is used to provide a
type attribute value for an atom:content
that has a URI value.
Added RAPTOR_FEATURE_ATOM_ENTRY_URI for the Atom
serializer to set the URI of an atom entry. If the URI matches the
URI of an entry item in the RDF mode of the channel, then an Atom
Entry document is generated rather than an Atom Feed document.
Added raptor_qname_to_counted_name() to get
a formatted qname for a name.
raptor_new_qname_from_namespace_local_name() will
accept a NULL namespace to construct a namespace-less qname.
raptor_sequence_set_at() now handles
setting an item at an index in the sequence beyond capacity+1
to automatically extend.
Added raptor_sequence_delete_at() to delete an item
at a position in a sequence and return it.
raptor_uri_to_relative_counted_uri_string() now
has support for a base URI with scheme and authority but no path,
so the result can be a relative URI starting with '/'.
XML Writer allows adding newlines via
raptor_xml_writer_newline() which
requires use of raptor_xml_writer_flush() to indicate
when XML writer output is finished.
Added raptor_xml_writer_get_depth() to get the current
XML writer element stack depth.
Many more resiliance checks were added.
Removed all calls to abort() in code on fatal errors. This requires using setjmp and longjmp inside parsers built with flex and bison.
The Turtle writer may optionally generate @base depending on flags. (This is used by Turtle serializer to handle the writeBaseURI feature)
Tidied error messages for rapper(1) when parsing stdin.
raptor_init() and raptor_finish() use a reference count to ensure initialising and terminating happen at most once each.
The main changes to this release are:
Added two new JSON serializers: resource-centric 'json' (Talis RDF/JSON) and triple-centric 'json-triples'.
Made I/O Stream class raptor_iostream support
reading as well as writing with new constructors and
new methods.
Added a new public SAX2 API class raptor_sax2
exposing the existing internal API which has been around since the
first release of Raptor 8 years ago and runs on top of either expat
or libxml2.
Added new public error handlers structure
raptor_error_handlers containing a set of
(function, data pointers) pairs called raptor_handler_closure
for each error log level.
Added raptor_log_level enum for the error log level.
Added an initialization function for the structure,
raptor_error_handlers_init().
Several other API changes, fixes and improvements were made.
Fixed Issues:
Made I/O Stream class raptor_iostream support
reading data in addition to writing. (Dave B):
raptor_iostream_handler structure for new
raptor_iostream_handler2 structure which contains the
new factory functions for reading.raptor_iostream_read_bytes_func and
raptor_iostream_read_eof_func.

and raptor_iostream_read_eof().
Added new write I/O Stream method
raptor_iostream_write_string_python() to write an
encoded string to an I/O stream using python / JSON / Turtle /
N-Triples / SPARQL escaping rules. (Dave B)
Added two new JSON serializers (Dave B):
json based on
Talis RDF/JSON Specificationjson-triples based on the SPARQL results in JSON format.Added new serializer features for the JSON serializers (DaveB):
RAPTOR_FEATURE_JSON_CALLBACK (name 'jsonCallback') to
set the top-level callback function name wrapper above the outer object.RAPTOR_FEATURE_JSON_EXTRA_DATA (name 'jsonExtraData') to
add extra top-level JSON object data.Example of using the resource-centric serializer while defining a callback:
$ rapper -q -o json -f jsonCallback=foo https://librdf.org/raptor/raptor.rdf
foo(
{
"https://librdf.org/raptor/#raptor" : {
"http://usefulinc.com/ns/doap#description" : [ {
...
Added raptor_statement_compare() to provide an
ordering between raptor_statement objects. (Dave B)

web requests (Dave B, based on a patch in the bug):
Also never Pragma: header with libcurl ever.
Fixes Issue #0000252

Added new method raptor_www_set_http_cache_control()
to set the HTTP Cache-Control: header in requests.
(Dave B, based on a patch in the bug)
Fixes Issue #0000252

Pass on error failures in parser and serializer factory construction. (Lauri)
Abbreviated serializers (RDF/XML-abbrev and Turtle): low memory and allocation failure fixes. (Lauri)
Altered API function signatures of
raptor_uri_set_handler(),
raptor_uri_get_handler(),
raptor_new_namespaces(),
raptor_namespaces_init() and
raptor_new_xml_writer() to add appropriate
consts. (Lauri)
Portability fixes for RAPTOR_API and other macros. (Lauri)
Removal of many sets of writable static data in N-Triples parser, URI class, Unicode NFC code, libxml support, Turtle writer and XML writer. (Lauri)
Portability fixes for round() and
trunc() that are not always available in libc but might
be in libm. (Dave B)
Turtle/N3 parsers and serializers, RDF/XML_Abbrev serializer: many low memory fixes and better out of memory errors. (Lauri)
Rewrote internal error log functions to use new error handlers structures and simplify the calls. (Dave B)
Expanded internal raptor_avltree datatype support to
add a cursor, allowing it to be used for creating large ordered
sequences that need to be walked. (Dave B)
Updated rdfdiff utility to handle duplicate triples
in inputs. (Dave B)
raptor_sequence_shift() and
raptor_sequence_unshift() are now as efficient as the
sequence push and pop operations: O(1). (Lauri)
autogen.sh was updated.
rapper utility can now accept multiple
-f / --feature options; previously
only one parser and one serializer feature was possible.
The main changes to this release are:
Provide 100% support for the GRDDL W3C Recommendation of 2007-09-11.
The
Turtle
parser and serializer were updated to support
@base for specifying a base URI, following
Turtle of 2007-09-11.
The Turtle and RDF/XML serializers had performance improvements for large graphs.
Added a TRiG Parser based on Turtle with named graph support.
Several other API changes, fixes and improvements were made.
Fixed Issues:
raptor_namespaces_init() now returns an integer
status.
Added raptor_graph_handler typedef and
raptor_set_graph_handler() to return named graph
identifiers during parsing, initially for the TRiG parser.
These were added the GRDDL parser:
RAPTOR_FEATURE_MICROFORMATS (microformats) to enable
hCard and hCal microformatsRAPTOR_FEATURE_HTML_TAG_SOUP (htmlTagSoup) to use
the HTML tag soup parser if the XML parsing failsRAPTOR_FEATURE_HTML_LINK (htmlLink) to enable html
<link>RAPTOR_FEATURE_WWW_TIMEOUT (wwwTimeout) for setting
URI retrieval timeouts during processingAdded
raptor_new_xml_element_from_namespace_local_name()
constructor to make an XML element from a local name relative
to a raptor_namespace.
Defined a new raptor_unichar typedef for a Unicode
codepoint defined as unsigned long which was the
previous type used. Altered the Unicode function to take it as a
parameter. raptor_unicode_char_to_utf8(),
raptor_utf8_to_unicode_char(),
raptor_unicode_is_xml11_namestartchar(),
raptor_unicode_is_xml10_namestartchar(),
raptor_unicode_is_xml11_namechar() and
raptor_unicode_is_xml10_namechar().
Added raptor_uri_compare() and
raptor_uri_compare_func function pointer for
implementing it in the raptor_uri_handler. The handler
now has a version field initialised to trigger the new
factory method for uri compare when the version is 2 or more.
Added raptor_www_set_connection_timeout()
to set the WWW retrieval connection timeout in seconds.
Added raptor_www_final_uri_handler typedef and
raptor_www_set_final_uri_handler() to return
the final URI seen during WWW retrieval such as after
redirects.
Added raptor_www_get_final_uri() to return the final URI
after a WWW retrieval which might include redirects.
The GRDDL parser/processor was substantially updated and now supports 100% of the Gleaning Resource Descriptions from Dialects of Languages (GRDDL) syntax, W3C Recommendation of 2007-09-11:
it also:
RAPTOR_FEATURE_MICROFORMATS is enabled (default
enabled).RAPTOR_FEATURE_HTML_LINK is
enabled (default enabled).RAPTOR_FEATURE_HTML_TAG_SOUP is enabled
(default enabled).RAPTOR_FEATURE_NO_NET feature to prevent
all networking.raptor_parser_set_uri_filter().RDF/XML parser recognising was updated to just the start of the document for guessing if it should handle content and to try to avoid html URLs.
RSS Tag soup parser recognising was updated to accept with the string 'feed' in the identifier.
TRiG Parser was added based on the Turtle parser, adding named
graphs. It returns name graph URis via a callback set with new API
call raptor_set_graph_handler()
Turtle parser added @base support, fixed turtle
escapes to URIs. Recognising was updated to look for
@prefix early in the document.
Turtle serialiser changes:
@base when an output base URI is given.RDF/XML serialiser was changed to emit a legal empty RDF/XML document when no triples are serialised and to skip emitting statements with bad predicate uris rather than returning an error.
RDF/XML Abbrev serialiser was changed to use an AVL tree rather than sequence for significant performance improvement for large serialisations.
rapper Utility ChangesAdded an --show-graphs option to print named graph
URIs as seen (such as with TRiG).
Added -I / --input-uri and
-O / --output-uri options to set the
input / parsing and output / serializing base URIs
separately. Defaults remain the same - the serializer base URI
defaults to the input base URI, however it was set.
Fixes for when building from Subversion on cygwin (EOL issues, Makefiles).
Remove unused semicolons for prevention of compiler warnings.
Fix some uninitialized variables that some compilers complain about.
Allow RAPTOR_ASSERT_DIE to be externally defined.
Allow RAPTOR_WWW_BUFFER_SIZE to be externally defined.
autogen.sh was updated to handle program versions
better using an inline perl helper.
Start to add resiliance to memory allocation failures and errors inside the library.
Added AVL Tree code to make much faster key:value lookups. This is used for RDF/XML parser XML ID checks and in the 'abbrev' serializers - Turtle and RDF/XML-Abbrev for looking up nodes.
Better libxml error messages are now returned, mentioning some of the names and values that caused the error.
GRDDL parser now passes the (unapproved) test suite for the GRDDL W3C Working Draft 2 March 2007 except for two tests that have been reported as having errors.
When using libcurl as the WWW retrieval library, errors in resolving a URI such as not found (404) are now reported as proper errors and cause parsing to fail rather than just return no triples.
Some improvments where made to guessing for a parser to match some content. Firstly, any mime type with Q <10 is added to the score, don't lose the influence of the mime type entirely. The consequence of this is that Turtle can pretend to be a partial N3 parser. Secondly, the XHTML mime type is now correctly recognised by the GRDDL parser rather than the RSS Tag Soup parser.
Fixed Issues:
xml:base attribute, but does truncate rdf:about and rdf:resource valuesAdded better error reporting for XML errors using the libxml structured error reporing api. From

GRDDL parser updated to support the GRDDL W3C Working Draft 2 March 2007:
Turtle parser was changed to accept the N3 mime
type text/rdf+n3 at low Q(quality)
so it might work for N3 that is the RDF subset - quite common.
Changed the RSS Tag Soup parser and RSS 1.0 serializer to stop sharing use of the declared namespaces so that when using both at the same time, there is no double-free of the same objects.
Correct the content: namespace URI in the RSS parser and serializers.
rapper gains a -t/--trace option to show
URIs traversed. Handy for GRDDL.
raptor_uri_resolve_uri_reference() no longer goes
past the end of buffer when the relative URI is ,/
Added an internal API for capturing parsed data as it is seen. Use by GRDDL parser but with no public API.
Added an internal API for structured error reporting. Updates made throughout the library but with no public API.
Internal API raptor_new_sax2() signature changed to
just have an error_handlers pointer argument rather than
multiple function / user_data pairs.
Added a Turtle Terse RDF Triple Language serialiser by Dave Robillard based on the existing RDF/XML-Abbrev serialiser.
Added a GraphViz DOT format serialiser by Evan Nemerson.
The GRDDL parser now does namespace and profile URI recursion and has other improvements and fixes.
Fixed Issues:
rdf:type predicate with a literal object.raptor-config gains a --private-libs
for the internal libraries used in building raptor, with the public
ones only emitted with --libs.
raptor.pc now uses Libs.private for
internal dynamically linked libraries.
The libxml minimum version is now 2.6.8 since 2.6.7 crashes on PPC64 Linux. 2.6.8 was released March 2004 so this should be no burden.
Do not use PATH_MAX so raptor can build on Hurd.
RDF/XML parser now looks for the RDF/XML root element and
namespace declaration in the initial bytes of content when guessing.
This allows content that is in other mime types such as
application/xml to be more likely guessed as RDF/XML.
When guessing a parser to use, if an an exact match is found for the mime type (q=10), then that parser is used.
The GRDDL parser has several changes:
Added a new Turtle Terse RDF Triple Language serializer and two new internal APIs based on the existing RDF/XML-Abbrev serialiser, written by Dave Robillard:
turtle_writer for serializing triples to Turtle This
may be moved to the public API in a future release.raptor_abbrev for the common 'abbreviated
serializer' core that is shared between the RDF/XML-Abbrev and Turtle
serializer.Added a new GraphViz DOT format serialiser writen by Evan Nemerson.
Note that testing the turtle serializing (make test)
requires the rdfdiff -u and a few of the tests take some
time to run.
Added raptor_home_url_string
and raptor_license_string exported strings.
Added raptor_parser_generate_id() as a public function
to generate an identifier for a parser.
rdfdiff gains the -u/--base-uri option to specify the
from file base URI so that if the from file is a local file or
relative URI, it can be given an absolute base.
Failures to retrieve content from a URI using
the raptor_www class implementations now return a
failure as well as setting the HTTP status code to 403 or 404 as
appropriate. Previously success may have been returned with no
bytes.
Prevent losing memory for a raptor_xml_writer when a
serializer is reused several times.
Fixed issues reported on the Redland Issue Tracker:
In maintainer mode, add all the supported compiler -W
warning flags to the CFLAGS.
Allow LEX to be set to things that aren't exactly
'flex'.
Added single triple serializing example to the tutorial to
demonstrate serializing without parsing and building
a raptor_statement.
Declare several raptor functions with GCC printf-formatting attributes when using a new enough GCC.
RDF/XML parser now creates literals with
raptor_stringbuffer so that it does a lot less copying
when constructing longer literals.
Added single raptor_statement serializing example
to demonstrate serializing alone without parsing.
Restored the order of serialized syntaxes back to the same as in Raptor 1.4.10 which Redland was relying on - asking to serialize to mime type 'application/rdf+xml' without specifying a parser name in Redland with Raptor 1.4.11 wrote it in XMP instead of RDF/XML as it used to. This happened more often with language bindings. That problem will be fixed in a future release of Redland but for now, this stops wierd things like that happening.
Added raptor_get_feature_count() to return
the count of features, in preference to using the
macro value RAPTOR_FEATURE_LAST.
Added raptor_www_set_uri_filter() method of the
WWW class (raptor_www) objects to have an
optional URI filter function that checks if the URL given is
allowed to be retrieved, or denied entirely.
Fixed issues reported on the Redland Issue Tracker:
The Raptor Reference Manual now includes descriptions of all the parsers and serializers and the tutorial has a new section describing how to filter URIs and deny network requests.
Added functionality to prevent network requests either via setting
a new feature RAPTOR_FEATURE_NO_NET that denies network
requests during a parser operation or with a URI filter function
raptor_parser_set_uri_filter(). This function uses
raptor_www_set_uri_filter() internally.
Added raptor_get_need_base_uri() to tell if a parser
requires a base URI argument. Presently the N-Triples parser
is the only parser that does not require a base URI.
raptor_start_parse() will now throw an error if no base
URI is given and it is needed.
The GRDDL parser was changed to
handle a list of URIs in the profile so it now
can support dataview:transformation in XML taking a list
of transformations as defined in
The GRDDL profile for XHTML part of the GRDDL specification.
It now also recognises
Embedded RDF and
HCalendar
using well known XPaths and transforms them to RDF triples using well
known XSLT sheet URIs.
The Guess parser now resets after each parse and does a fresh guess on the syntax based on the incoming information. Fixes Issue #0000091
The Turtle parser (and experimental N3 parser) were changed to now require base URIs as they always should have. The error messages when reporting problems with grammar tokens now return better responses. Added better memory cleanup during parser error recovery.
The RSS 1.0 Serializer now works again.
Updated the RDF/XML Abbreviated serializer to do proper reference counting on the blank/resource nodes used as subjects and objects to prevent dual-triple generation. Fixes the reported Issue #0000014
The internal SAX2 API can also prevent network fetches with the
feature RAPTOR_FEATURE_NO_NET.
Fixed a SAX2 problem that caused parsers that use it to leak memory for 1 URI, affected RDF/XML and RSS Tag Soup.
rapper help and verbose message formats were tidied.
No parser will now generate a triple with an identifier type
RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_ORDINAL. Only identifier type
resource, anonymous (blank node) and literal will be generated.
All serializers will convert any
RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_ORDINAL type on input to type
resource.
No longer adds LDFLAGS to pkgconfig file raptor.pc
and raptor-config fixing
Issue #0000097.
All parsers no longer generate a triple with an identifier type
RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_ORDINAL, as deprecated in 1.4.8.
The replacement type generated is RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_RESOURCE.
The RSS Tag Soup (rss-tag-soup) parser now makes the
triples appear before parser destruction. This caused odd symptoms
like parsing in python returning no triples and the parser then
crashing during object destruction.
The RDF/XML (rdfxml) parser no longer crashes if a
comment is seen outside an element, such as before or after the root
element.
The RDF/XML (rdfxml) serializer no longer crashes if
the serializer is used more than once.
Now using Subversion for version control and the Raptor installation instructions explain how to get Raptor from Subversion.
configure now allows --enable-parsers=node and
--enable-serializers=none. Using both is possible!
No longer require libxml2 for the RSS Tag Soup parser
Various Win32 fixes and VC build files updates from John Barstow.
A new Raptor Tutorial was written covering using all parsing and serializing functions along with example code.
The Raptor Reference Manual now covers 100% of all functions, structs and defines with gtkdoc generated documentation.
rapper utility Changesrapper now uses namespaces found in parsing to give
hints to the serializer as to how to format the output. The result
of this is that rapper can be used as an RDF
pretty-printer and is especially good at such things as turning flat
N-Triples to RDF/XML or RDF/XML-Abbrev. such as:
rapper -q -i ntriples -o rdfxml-abbrev example.nt
All parsers no longer generate
RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_PREDICATE as the statement
predicate type, as deprecated in 1.4.8. The replacement
type generated is RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_RESOURCE.
The Turtle parser now has true and false
boolean literals, which were accidently omiited from the parser in
the 1.4.8 update.
Parsers can register capabilities for handling multiple mime types
with Q values. These are then used in WWW requests for content
in the Accept: header for HTTP. Added
raptor_parser_factory_add_mime_type for registering,
raptor_parser_get_accept_header to get the accept header
values for the types supported by one parser.
From the previous change, the RSS parser now accepts several
unregistered RSS mime types as well as the registered Atom one; the
RDF/XML parser accepts unregistered mime type text/rdf
seen occasionally; the Turtle parser accepts several experimental
mime types. All unregistered or experimental types are accepted with
lower Q than any registered type.
The RSS Tag Soup parser for RSS* and Atom no longer requires libxml2 (for it's XML Reader API). Internal changes mean that it will fully work on top of expat.
The RSS/Atom serializer now uses input namespace declarations to choose namespaces on output.
Added raptor_serialize_set_namespace_from_namespace
to set a namespace for serializing from an existing
raptor_namespace.
Serializing to RDF/XML (or RDF/XML Abbrev) now does not double-free URI strings. Fixes Issue #0000065
RSS serializer no longer writes the XML header twice.
Added raptor_iostream_write_uri to directly write a URI
to an iostream without the need to go via a string.
Fixed bug in raptor_iostream_write_xml_any_escaped_string
failing to write ';' after escaping U+0009 and U+000A
Added raptor_namespaces_qname_from_uri to do URI
splitting into qname prefering to use the current in-scope namespaces
before having to search.
raptor_namespaces_format now NULL-terminates the namespace string.
Fixes Issue #0000062
Added raptor_namespace_get_counted_prefix to return a
namespace prefix and it's length.
Added raptor_qname_get_namespace to get the namespace
associated with a QName.
raptor_stringbuffer_append_counted_string and
raptor_stringbuffer_append_string now Do nothing on
appending a NULL string or a string of length 0.
Fixes Issue #0000073
raptor_utf8_to_unicode_char now also checks for
overlong UTF-8 sequences, illegal code positions or out of range
codes.
Deprecated raptor_uri_is_file_uri which takes a
URI string argument for new function raptor_uri_string_is_file_uri
which more clearly says that.
Changed all URI string calloc/mallocs to add enough room for a full pointer at the string end to stop valgrind moaning on 64bit systems when looking for the end of string NUL.
raptor_uri_set_handler and
raptor_new_iostream_from_handler now take const
handler arguments.
Get the curl success status into a long, not an int which causes failure on 64 bit. Fixes Issue #0000075
WWW requests for content to parse now always send an appropriate
Accept: header with Q values for the parser, or for the
guess parser, all supported mime types.
Added XML element methods
raptor_xml_element_get_attributes and
raptor_xml_element_get_attributes_count,
raptor_xml_element_is_empty
to the SAX2 API.
Many internal changes were made to the SAX2 API to finally separate XML and RDF/XML parts. The SAX2 API is now fully usable on either libxml2 or expat. That last sentence implies a lot of work, by the way.
A large source re-arrangement was performed. All C sources and headers that build the library are now in the src dir, general documentation in the doc dir and utilities in the utils dir. This both tidied up the mixture of files at the top level and also enabled better use with gtk-doc.
Future API change: From the next release of
Raptor, raptor_statement predicates will return
identifiers of type RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_RESOURCE
instead of RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_PREDICATE.
Identifiers of type RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_ORDINAL may
no longer be returned in any statement position (to be confirmed).
Version Control change: Raptor will be switching to use Subversion for version control after the 1.4.8 release. Please check the Redland Subversion site for the latest status or the online Raptor installation notes for the raptor specific subversion installation information.
The autogen.sh script for building from CVS was revamped to be more modular.
configure now takes an --enable-gtk-doc
option to enable building of the documentation using the
gtk-doc utility. It is by default enabled only if the
utility is available.
Added a new configure option --enable-serializers (in
1.4.7) to allow the selection of the required RDF serializers from
any of those supported.
raptor-config now has a --options
argument to list the configured or discovered options of the library
such as parsers, serializers and other choices.
The GNOME gtk-doc program is now used to
automatically extract documentation from source comments into
reference documentation. This is then merged with templates and
additional documentation to provide a reference manual for raptor
as XML document which is turned into HTML along with GNOME devhelp
support.
This new documentation intended to replace the libraptor manual page/web page as easier to read document with scope for better expanding with more detail of raptor including examples and tutorial information. The manual page will continue to contain the summary information for the present.
Fixed a long-standing URI resolution bug on win32 - only remove leading / if there is one present (patch from John C. Barstow)
rapper utility ChangesAltered the -g argument to invoke the guessing parser
rather than guess on file/URI name alone. This is now equivalent to
choosing an input syntax of guess with -i guess.
Added a --show-namespaces long option (no short version)
to show namespaces that are declared in the parsed content.
A new guessing parser was added, picking the actual parser to use at run-time based on protocol or other information.
Allow a content type returned by a protocol (such as HTTP) to
enable choosing of parser at run-time. Added a new optional
parser factory method content_type_handler to return this.
Allow parsers to handle several syntaxes rather than only 1 or 2.
Parsers can now return namespace prefix/URI declarations as
they are given in the content by the means of a new handler type
raptor_namespace_handler and parser method
raptor_set_namespace_handler. Duplicate namespace
prefix/URIs can be returned.
Bug fix when the entire content is in one chunk (René Puls).
A new parser that guesses the actual parser to use at run-time based on a combination of MIME Content-Type, file or URI name and in future, iniital bytes of the content. If the Content-Type is an exact match to a known parser, it is always chosen before trying heuristics.
When emitting literals, handle a datatyped empty literal. This is a post-REC errata for the revised RDF/XML recommendation. See archived example for further information.
Added atom 1.0 support including use of the new namespace. Atom 0.3 namespace terms are turned into new properties. Replace atom copies of Dublin Core or RSS properties with the original terms:
| Atom 1.0 term | Original term |
|---|---|
atom:content | rss:description |
atom:id | rss:link |
atom:published | dc:date |
atom:rights | dc:rights |
atom:title | rss:title |
Apply the in-scope base URI (such as from xml:base)
to atom 1.0 fields that take URI values:
atom:id, atom:icon and atom:logo.
Added optional date parsing code to turn XML RSS date fields into ISO format ones, suitable for Atom and XML schema datatypes format. Will use library parsedate code from curl or INN if available.
XML RSS field pubDate is now turned into Dublin Core
dc:date field in the ISO format.
XML RSS field content is turned into
content:encoded in RDF triples on output with
escaping.
Updated to support Turtle version 2006-01-02 (announcement).
Switch qname, blank node and prefix definitions to SPARQL ones.
Check for illegal not-hexadecimal \u and \U escape values.
Fix greedy matching of long literals ("""....""") that ended on the last """ found rather than the first.
Added double and decimal constants.
Added optional +- sign to all numeric constants.
Allow \" escape inside long strings.
Take care to reset the generated raptor_statement
language and datatype fields when not used.
Added a new Atom 1.0 serializer (name atom) by parameterising the RSS 1.0 serializer.
Added a new Adobe XMP compatible serializer (name rdfxml-xmp) by parameterising the RDF/XML Abbreviated serializer. Patch provided by Sid Steward.
All serializers can be chosen at configure time from
those available using configure option --enable-serializers.
The RSS parser and serializer can now be independently enabled or disabled. The RSS serializer no longer requires an XML parser.
A new XML Writer feature
RAPTOR_FEATURE_WRITER_XML_VERSION was added to allow
chosing XML 1.0 (value 10) or XML 1.1 output (value 11). This
feature is also accepted by serializers as an option and used by the
RDF/XML and RDF/XML-Abbrev serializers.
A new XML Writer feature
RAPTOR_FEATURE_WRITER_XML_DECLARATION was added to allow
omitting the XML declaration (default true).
Added functions raptor_xml_any_escape_string()
and raptor_iostream_write_xml_any_escaped_string()
which take an XML version. The XML 1.0 functions give errors
when attempting to write #x1-#x1f (excluding #x9, #xA, #xD) or #x7F.
Added a new serializer using the Atom 1.0 format and namespace. This reads RDF triples in the RSS 1.0 model, along with any additional atom 1.0 properties and serializes an Atom 1.0 feed file.
Added a new serializer writing RDF/XML in the profile used by
Adobe XMP. Note that this does require RDF triples to be used in a
certain style; for example all triple subjects are the "current
documment" giving rdf:about="".
Fix a bug when adding a default path of / to a URI
in functions raptor_new_uri_for_xmlbase()
and raptor_new_uri_for_retrieval().
(Bug #0000045)
raptor_uri_equals was altered to accept NULL pointers, which do not compare equal to a non-NULL URI. NULL does equal NULL.
The internal SAX2 class was extensively changed so that remaining interdependencies with the RDF/XML parser were removed and it can now be re-used for other syntaxes cleanly. Several functions were modified or added.
Removed old and hardly-tested internal support for XML entity resolution (libxml only).
Various fixes for GCC 4 warnings.
Fix a couple of crashes in the RSS tag soup parser / serializer (Dave Beckett, Suzan Foster).
configure now looks for the
libxslt/xslt.h header as well as the
libxslt library and disables XSLT and GRDDL support it
if is missing. This catches systems with the libraries without
headers as has happened on some OSX versions.
In serializers rdfxml and rdfxml-abbrev, report failure to serialize to RDF/XML if the predicate URI is not absolute.
Added --with-xslt-config configure option
Added a new parser for
Gleaning Resource Descriptions from Dialects of Languages (GRDDL)
which allows reading XHTML and XML as RDF triples by using profiles
in the document that declare XSLT transforms from the XHTML/XML
content into RDF/XML which is the RDF content. It does not
support all the GRDDL styles, for example
dataview:namespaceTransformation,
or perform recursive transformations.
The turtle parser now accepts """long literals"""
XML writer feature support were added in 1.4.5 and not documented.
The new functions are:
raptor_xml_writer_features_enumerate,
raptor_xml_writer_set_feature,
raptor_xml_writer_set_feature_string,
raptor_xml_writer_get_feature and
raptor_xml_writer_get_feature_string.
The three XML writer features added are
\fBRAPTOR_FEATURE_WRITER_AUTO_INDENT\fR with boolean value (default true)
to auto-indent the XML,
\fBRAPTOR_FEATURE_WRITER_AUTO_EMPTY\fR with boolean value (default true)
to automatically generate empty elements if a start/end element sequence
has no content and
\fBRAPTOR_FEATURE_WRITER_INDENT_WIDTH\fR with an integer value (default 2)
to set the indenting level for the XML.
New build configuration and portability fixes for win32 (John Barstow)
Portability fixes for win32 - added
SIZEOF_UNSIGNED_SHORT (Dave Viner, others)
Added a signing memory debugging system to aid checking when
raptor-allocated memory is freed in another library or vice-versa
enabled by --with-memory-signing configure option
(defaults to on in maintainer mode).
Fixed a few internal malloc/frees to use RAPTOR_MALLOC / RAPTOR_FREE so that the above signed memory system worked.
RDF/XML serializer:
Use the maximal name when splitting a predicate.
Turn datatyped literals that are rdf:XMLLiteral into inline XML with
rdf:parseType="Literal" rather than XML-escaped.
RDF/XML abbreviated serializer:
Fix a crash when there is a NULL base URI.
Use the maximal name when splitting a predicate.
Turn datatyped literals that are rdf:XMLLiteral into inline XML with
rdf:parseType="Literal" rather than XML-escaped.
RSS tag soup parser:
Fix crash with unexpected use of alternate attribute.
Update from Suzan Foster to reflect the latest status of the
enclosure vocabulary and allow multiple common items and fields.
RSS 1.0 serializer: Added RSS enclosures serializing.
grapper example GTK program now stores the window
width and height using gconf2.
Added a new RDF/XML with abbreviations serializer
rdfxml-abbrev written by Steve Shepard which handles
several of the abbreviations specified by the
RDF/XML Syntax Specification (Revised)
W3C Recommendation. It is suitable for writing small documents as
there are known scaling issues.
The RSS tag soup parser was updated to work better when there is no base URI given. It also now supports reading the RSS 1.1 format and turning it into RSS 1.0 model triples.
Deprecated raptor_ntriples_string_as_utf8_string as
rather too internal to be useful, since it only works with a parser.
More fixes to work around the broken libxml2 on Apple OSX 10.3.x with inconsistent shared libraries / headers.
Experimental and incomplete Notation 3 parser - updated to match changes to Turtle. CVS changes only, not enabled in standard builds.
Make the RSS tag soup parser handle RSS 0.9 namespace elements by turning them into RSS 1.0.
Fix a couple of crashes in the RSS 1.0 serialiser when no base URI is used.
Make raptor_uri_to_relative_counted_uri_string
work when the base or reference URI have no paths such as like
http://example.org
Added portability fixes for Win32 to get Raptor 1.4.3 building with MS Visual Studio using expat and libcurl. The RAPTOR_INTERNAL define was moved to the build configuration and defines added for integral type sizes. Patch from Dave Viner (dviner at apache dot org).
A release with the major new feature of an XML writer API. This is now used along with a new supporting XML element class to improve the existing RDF/XML serializer and to provide a new RSS 1.0 serializer.
This API it is also used by the next release of Rasqal to provide serializing of query results to XML.
The new raptor_xml_writer class functions added are:
raptor_new_xml_writer (constructor),
raptor_free_xml_writer (destructor),
raptor_xml_writer_empty_element,
raptor_xml_writer_start_element,
raptor_xml_writer_end_element,
raptor_xml_writer_cdata,
raptor_xml_writer_cdata_counted,
raptor_xml_writer_raw,
raptor_xml_writer_raw_counted,
raptor_xml_writer_comment and
raptor_xml_writer_comment_counted.
The new raptor_xml_element class functions added are:
raptor_new_xml_element (constructor),
raptor_free_xml_element (destructor),
raptor_xml_element_get_name,
raptor_xml_element_set_attributes,
raptor_xml_element_declare_namespace and
raptor_iostream_write_xml_element.
RSS tag soup parser now works with older libxml2s (2.5.10+), including the one shipped with some Apple OSX versions that has an inconsistent header file and library.
RSS tag soup parser recognises/scores more common XML RSS file names.
RSS tag soup parser turns XML RSS
<guid isPermaLink="true">val</guid>
into RDF/XML form <guid rdf:resource="val"/>, leaving
the non isPermaLink form to be a literal value.
A bug was found in libxml2 that causes double expanding of XML entities in RDF/XML. This has been reported but cannot be worked around from raptor. The expat XML parser can be used as an alternative, as it does not have this problem. A test was added for this bug but it will not cause the test suite ('make check') to fail.
Added additional Turtle parser tests that cover Notation 3 syntax that is not part of the Turtle language.
Added
raptor_parser_set_feature_string and
raptor_parser_get_feature_string
methods to set/get string feature values.
Added feature relative_uris for serializers. This
is used by the RDF/XML serializer and enabled by default.
Added feature start_uri for serializers with a string
value to set the start URI for serializing. Not used at present.
Added new methods raptor_serializer_features_enumerate
to list serializer features and functions to set/get serializer
feature integer or strings values:
raptor_serializer_set_feature,
raptor_serializer_get_feature,
raptor_serializer_set_feature_string and
raptor_serializer_get_feature_string.
Added raptor_serialize_set_namespace to allow user
declaration of prefix/URI namespaces pairs as serializing hints.
the RDF/XML serializer was improved using the new XML Writer class so it now uses any user-declared namespace hints in it's output and emits relative URIs whenever possible. The latter was provided by a patch from René Puls.
A new RSS 1.0 serializer was added, using the new XML Writer class and using the same structures, classes and properties as the RSS tag soup parser.
Added relative URI generating code from a patch written by René Puls
and provide this with two new methods
raptor_uri_to_relative_uri_string and
raptor_uri_to_relative_counted_uri_string.
Added raptor_uri_print to print a URI to a file handle.
Added methods raptor_uri_to_string and
raptor_uri_to_counted_string to return a URI as newly
allocated strings.
Many classes gained methods to write to iostreams, supporting the
new XML Writer class functionality. The added methods are:
raptor_iostream_write_namespace,
raptor_iostream_write_ntriples_string,
raptor_iostream_write_qname,
raptor_iostream_write_statement_ntriples,
raptor_iostream_write_stringbuffer,
raptor_iostream_write_xml_element and
raptor_iostream_write_xml_escaped_string.
Added raptor_namespace_copy copy
constructor and raptor_new_namespace_from_uri
constructor to build a namespace from a raptor_uri object.
Added utility function raptor_new_namespace_parts_from_string
to decode syntax of the form
xmlns:prefix="uri"
into prefix and uri string pairs.
Added raptor_namespaces_find_namespace_by_uri method
for namespace stack to find a declared namespace by URI. This
complements raptor_namespaces_find_namespace which
already provides searching by prefix.
Added several methods for checking characters forming
parts of XML 1.0 or XML 1.1 names:
raptor_unicode_is_xml10_namestartchar,
raptor_unicode_is_xml11_namestartchar,
raptor_unicode_is_xml10_namechar and
raptor_unicode_is_xml11_namechar.
Added a function raptor_utf8_check to check that a
string is legal UTF-8 and all the encoded Unicode characters are in
the range U+0 <= character <= U+10FFFF
Added a function raptor_xml_name_check to check that
a string is a legal XML name (1.0 or 1.1) as well as legal UTF-8.
Feature support: Added raptor_feature_value_type to
determine value of a feature - either integer (most) or string.
XML QName class: Added raptor_qname_copy copy
constructor.
Sequence class: Added raptor_sequence_join
to join two sequences of items, leaving one empty.
Statement class: Added raptor_statement_copy copy
constructor and raptor_free_statement destructor.
Previously these were internal to raptor.
The rapper utility was modified to add a feature form:
-f xmlns:PREFIX="URI"
allowing the setting of output serializer namespaces.
The namespace URI string constants exported by raptor are now of type unsigned char*.
Make raptor_xml_escape_string fail correctly when
given bad UTF-8 to escape.
Fixed a buffer overrun in decoding a URI scheme in
raptor_uri constructors such as
raptor_new_uri.
Fixed a crash in RSS enclosures crash when the url
attribute seen on a non-<enclosure> element
raptor_xml_escape_string return value has changed to
be an int, returning <0 on failure. This allows the empty string
encoding an empty string case to work and be distinguished from an
error.
A release with the major new feature of providing serializing of RDF triples to syntaxes. It also added a new support class for I/O streams and had other minor fixes.
Added a Raptor Serializer class (raptor_serializer)
with similar style to Parser (raptor_parser). Two
serializers are provided, for RDF/XML and N-Triples. The serializing
can be done to files, C FILE* or to strings. The
raptor_iostream class that provides this also allows writing
to any other form by creating a custom iostream.
The new raptor_serializer class functions added are:
raptor_serializers_enumerate,
raptor_serializer_syntax_name_check,
raptor_new_serializer,
raptor_free_serializer,
raptor_serialize_start,
raptor_serialize_start_to_filename,
raptor_serialize_start_to_string,
raptor_serialize_start_to_file_handle,
raptor_serialize_statement,
raptor_serialize_end,
raptor_serializer_get_iostream,
raptor_serializer_set_error_handler,
raptor_serializer_set_warning_handler and
raptor_serializer_get_locator
Added a Raptor I/O stream abstraction in
raptor_iostream class to support serializing of RDF to
multiple output streams such as to filenames, to C standard I/O
FILE* handles and to strings especially for
cross-language use. A raptor_iostream_handler can
be used to construct a user-defined iostream.
The new raptor_iostream class functions added are:
raptor_new_iostream_from_handler,
raptor_new_iostream_to_sink,
raptor_new_iostream_to_filename,
raptor_new_iostream_to_file_handle,
raptor_new_iostream_to_string,
raptor_free_iostream,
raptor_iostream_write_bytes,
raptor_iostream_write_byte,
raptor_iostream_write_end,
raptor_iostream_write_string,
raptor_iostream_write_counted_string,
raptor_iostream_get_bytes_written_count,
raptor_iostream_write_decimal and
raptor_iostream_format_hexadecimal.
The rapper utility was modified to use serializer
class so that the output formats supported are now N-Triples
(-o ntriples) - the default, and RDF/XML (-o
rdfxml).
Raptor now exports more static namespace URI strings for
general application use:
raptor_xml_namespace_uri,
raptor_rdf_namespace_uri,
raptor_rdf_schema_namespace_uri,
raptor_xmlschema_datatypes_namespace_uri,
raptor_owl_namespace_uri,
and the length
raptor_rdf_namespace_uri_len.
The raptor_stringbuffer class gained a new method
raptor_stringbuffer_copy_to_string
which allows efficient copy-out of a constructed string.
The raptor_www class gained a new method
raptor_www_fetch_to_string to allow retrieving of
web content as a single string.
RSS tag soup parser gained support for generating triples for enclosures, after a patch from Suzan Foster. Changes made include correcting the enclosures namespace and tidying some memory leaks.
A release with major improvements along with several minor fixes.
Raptor's License was changed from LGPL 2.1/MPL 1.1 to LGPL 2.1/Apache 2
Thanks to Chris Pointon for several patches to make Raptor easier to build under Win32 which were applied, with some slight modifications.
Increased WWW content retrieval buffer size from 256 bytes to 4K since this was causing problems for even moderate size documents.
After testing raptor on a very large RDF/XML file with many
rdf:ID values, the check for duplicate values was found
to be inefficient in memory and slow. The implementation was
improved to be more memory efficient and a new parser feature
check_rdf_id was added to disable checking (default is
enabled).
Added a new Unicode NFC checker to replace the functionality
formally available by calling the GNOME glib function
g_utf8_normalize. This new checker is done via several tables and
adds approximately 50K to the object size of the library when
compiled on x86. This code and tables can be disabled with configure
option --disable-nfc-check causing all checks to
succeed.
Fix the exporting of
raptor_xml_literal_datatype_uri_string and
raptor_xml_literal_datatype_uri_string_len as constants
for use by applications. Previously raptor.h wasn't doing this
correctly.
Added raptor_calloc_memory for allocating zeroed
memory inside raptor, for use by applications passing memory in/out
of raptor.
Added a new configure option --enable-parsers to
allow the selection of the required RDF parsers from any of those
supported (RDF/XML, Turtle, N-Triples, RSS tag soup).
Reorganised the sources to split parsing support from RDF/XML to support compiling without this parser.
Updated the RSS Tag Soup parser to start to handle the Atom 0.3 currently being standardised by the IETF Atom Publishing Format and Protocol working group.
Altered the Turtle parser to work with large source documents that exceeded bison limits. Thanks to Geoff Chappell for providing a fix for this.
Rewrote the URI parsing to create an internal structure and improved the relative URI resolving in preparation for future work such as potentially supporting URI canonicalisation such as proposed to be used by Atom.
A release with some minor fixes.
Added a new configure option
--with-expat-source=DIR
to allow the use of external expat source trees in either the old or
newer directory structure style. (Patch from Mark Smith).
Added raptor_alloc_memory for handlers that need to
allocate memory in the same heap as raptor uses for
raptor_free_memory. This is mostly useful for allocating
memory that is freed by raptor in error, ID and statement handlers
on win32 which has separate heaps for different DLLs.
A bug was fixed where errors which happened when fetching WWW content were always printed to stderr. They are now passed to the main error routines which allows applications to retrieve them.
Accessor functions were added for parts of the public
raptor_locator structure which makes it possible to get
structured error information from language bindings via Redland
(Patch from Edd Dumbill). The new functions are:
int raptor_locator_line(raptor_locator *locator);int raptor_locator_column(raptor_locator *locator);int raptor_locator_byte(raptor_locator *locator);const char * raptor_locator_file(raptor_locator *locator);const char * raptor_locator_uri(raptor_locator *locator);The Unicode Normal Form C (NFC) checking via the GNOME glib
library function g_utf8_normalize is broken, comparing
the data it says is failed against other NFC checkers. It is also
slower than need be since it is doing full normalizing rather than
just checking for NFC, and adds a rather large dependency for just
one function. A new portable checker will be added in a later
release.
A release primarily to fix some win32 and portability issues.
raptor.h now includes stdarg.h
Corrected the raptor_print_statement declaration in
raptor.h for the argument statement to have one less 'const' which
matches the actual code.
Made several portability fixes for compiling natively on win32 which doesn't quite do POSIX or C99.
Changed the support for file: URIs and converting to and from
filenames. It now %-escapes spaces and % characters on conversion
to and from filenames with
raptor_uri_uri_string_to_filename,
raptor_uri_uri_string_to_filename_fragment
and
raptor_uri_filename_to_uri_string.
For Win32, more tests were added and the
format of URIs supported corrected to use the file:///c:
form rather than file://c|/
URIs that resolve to directories now return an error when lstat is available to check.
The Turtle parser was updated to only allow language with non-datatyped literals, allow a '_' immediately after a ':' in qnames and to make a bare ':' qname work correctly.
The Turtle parser was fixed to re-initialise correctly when performing multiple parsings. The other parsers already did this correctly.
Added a warning to the RDF/XML parser for unknown
rdf:parseType values, when parsing in lax mode - which
is the default. It now tells the user when the parsing is working as
'Literal' mode by finding an unknown value. This is controlled by a
new parser feature warn_other_parsetypes which is default set true
in lax mode. Parser modes are controlled by the
raptor_set_parser_strict method.
A release primarily to provide support for the new Rasqal RDF query library but with some new features and fixes.
Added a new constructor
raptor_new_parser_for_content to guess the parser to use
from hints in URIs or content, using a new utility function
raptor_guess_parser_name.
Additional checks were added to the RDF/XML parser for RDF-namespaced names in element and attributes and if they are forbidden giving an error otherwise if unknown, giving a warning.
The
Turtle
parser was updated to correct the collections syntax, allow '-' in
names and QNames and to add integer literals. This parser now correctly
uses raptor_generate_id when a blank identifier name is
needed.
Completed parser feature support by adding raptor_get_feature,
raptor_feature_from_uri, and
raptor_features_enumerate to get values and enable
discovery of supported features at run time.
raptor_set_feature was changed to give return a success
value
Added a new method raptor_get_mime_type to get the
MIME type of the syntax for a parser
raptor_parse_uri_with_connection (which is called by
raptor_parse_uri) now sets the HTTP Accept:
header to the MIME type of the parser in WWW requests using the new
raptor_www_set_http_accept().
rapper changesAdded options -f/--feature for setting
features and -g/--guess for guessing syntax
from some content or identifiers. See rapper(1)
for all rapper options.
Added raptor_syntax_name_check to check for valid
syntax language names.
Added raptor_free_memory to free memory returned by
raptor functions.
Added Unicode utility functions raptor_unicode_char_to_utf8 and
raptor_utf8_to_unicode_char.
Exported URI string raptor_xml_literal_datatype_uri_string.
Deprecated raptor_print_statement_detailed always
intended to be internal.
Added support to set the HTTP Accept: header for curl
and libxml2 when retrieving HTTP content by the new
raptor_www_set_http_accept method.
Added a utility class raptor_sequence providing
simple sequences that can handle stacks and queues
Added a utility class raptor_stringbuffer
for constructing strings from substrings appended or prepended.
