Constructor Detail

ModelBdb

public ModelBdb(StoreFactory sf)
         throws RDFException

Construct an RDF model based based a Berkeley DB store.

Parameters:

sf - A factory object which will be called once to return a Berkeley DB store which the model will use to store its data.

Throws:

RDFException - A generic RDF exception should anything go wrong.

Method Detail

supportsTransactions

public boolean supportsTransactions()

Description copied from interface: Model

Determine whether this model supports transactions.

Specified by:

supportsTransactions in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Returns:

true if this model supports transactions.

supportsSetOperations

public boolean supportsSetOperations()

Description copied from interface: Model

Determine whether this model supports set operations.

Specified by:

supportsSetOperations in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Returns:

true if this model supports set operations.

query

public Model query(Selector selector)
            throws RDFException

Description copied from interface: Model

Create a new model containing the statements matching a query.

A statment is considered to match if the test method of s returns true when called on s.

Specified by:

query in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Parameters:

s - A selector object.

Returns:

an iterator over the matching statements

Throws:

RDFException - Generic RDF exception.

union

public Model union(Model model)
            throws RDFException

Description copied from interface: Model

Create a new model containing all the statements in this model together with all of those in another given model.

Specified by:

union in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Parameters:

model - The other model whose statements are to be included.

Returns:

A new model containing all the statements that are in either model

Throws:

RDFException - Generic RDF Exception

intersection

public Model intersection(Model model)
                   throws RDFException

Description copied from interface: Model

Create a new model containing all the statements which are in both this model and another. As models are sets of statements, a statement contained in both models will only appear once in the resulting model.

Specified by:

intersection in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Parameters:

model - The other model.

Returns:

A new model containing all the statements that are in both models.

Throws:

RDFException - Generic RDF Exception

difference

public Model difference(Model model)
                 throws RDFException

Description copied from interface: Model

Create a new model containing all the statements in this model which are not in another.

Specified by:

difference in interface Model

Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Model

Parameters:

model - the other model whose statements are to be excluded.

Returns:

a new model containing all the statements in this model that are not in the given model.

Throws:

RDFException - Generic RDF Exception
