12 This module contains the third-party Redland RDF / librdf library, which
13 is needed to support data in RDF (Resource Description Framework) format.
14 It consists of 3 parts:
15 - raptor: parsers and serializers for numerous RDF file formats
16 - rasqal: query engine which supports SPARQL queries
17 - redland: librdf integrates raptor and rasqal, and provides numerous storage
18 engines for storing RDF graphs (in memory, SQL, ...)
20 Libraries: libraptor, librasqal, librdf
23 There are several patches, most of which contain only hacks to get it to
24 build with OOo build system.
25 There used to be also 3 patches here that fix bugs in redland and ought to be
27 - redland-1.0.8.patch.free_null:
28 redland destructor functions don't check if argument is NULL
29 - redland-1.0.8.patch.storage_hashes_context_serialize_get_statement:
30 hashes storage: the function to create statements during serialization does
31 not fill in the context propery (i.e. context is NULL)
32 - redland-1.0.8.patch.storage_hashes_list_duplicates:
33 hashes, list storage: if contexts are enabled, then it is possible to add
35 Attempts to upstream these patches failed for reasons upstream kept to
36 themselves. Now these patches are replaced with workarounds in unoxml.
37 Note to future maintainers: work around redland bugs in client code.
