Parameters:

linkSet - The graph of links.

mediaType - The representation's mediaType.

RdfRepresentation

public RdfRepresentation(MediaType mediaType)

Constructor with argument.

Parameters:

mediaType - The representation's mediaType.

RdfRepresentation

public RdfRepresentation(Representation rdfRepresentation)
                  throws java.io.IOException

Constructor that parsed a given RDF representation into a link set.

Parameters:

Method Detail

createBuilder

public GraphHandler createBuilder(Graph graph)

Returns an instance of a graph handler used when parsing the inner RDF representation.

Parameters:

graph - The graph to build.

Returns:

An instance of a graph handler used when parsing the inner RDF representation.

createWriter

public GraphHandler createWriter(MediaType mediaType,
                                 java.io.Writer writer)
                          throws java.io.IOException
