An RDF Statement implementation.

new ( SUBJECT, PREDICATE, OBJECT )

This is a class method, the constructor for RDFStore::Statement. SUBJECT and PREDICATE must be two RDFStore::Resource while OBJECT is RDFStore::RDFNode

subject

Return the RDFStore::Resource that is the RDF Subject/Resource of the Statement

predicate

Return the RDFStore::Resource that is the RDF Predicate/Property of the Statement/Resource

object

Return the RDFStore::RDFNode that is the RDF Object/Property-Value of the Statement/Resource

getURI

Return the URI identifing the RDF Statement; this is useful either for RDF reification (if ever it will be used :) and to treat RDF Statement as resources and then make "composite" statements....somehow ;)

getNamespace

Return undef

getLocalName

Return the label of the RDF Statement as a URN identifier with the digest hex encoded i.e. "urn:rdf:SHA-1:12uf2229829289229eee"

getLabel

Return the label of the RDF Statement as a URN identifier with the digest hex encoded i.e. "urn:rdf:SHA-1:12uf2229829289229eee"

toString

Return the textual represention of the RDF Statement i.e. triple("http://blaa.org", "http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/title", "Crapy site")

getDigest

Return a Cryptographic Digest (SHA-1 by default) of the Statement as defined in http://nestroy.wi-inf.uni-essen.de/rdf/sum_rdf_api/#K31

equals

Compare two RDF Statements.
