<h2><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h2>
<p>This class represents parsers of various syntaxes that can deliver a RDF model either as a RDF::Redland::Stream of RDF::Redland::Statement objects or directly into an RDF::Redland::Model object.</p>
<h2><a name="constructors">CONSTRUCTORS</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt><strong><a name="new_name_mime_type_uri" class="item">new [NAME [MIME_TYPE [URI]]]</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Create a new RDF::Redland::Parser object for a syntax parser named <em>NAME</em>, with MIME Type <em>MIME_TYPE</em> and/or URI <em>URI</em>. Any field can be undef or omitted; if all are omitted, a parser that provides MIME Type application/rdf+xml will be requested.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<h2><a name="methods">METHODS</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt><strong><a name="parse_as_stream_source_uri_base_uri" class="item">parse_as_stream SOURCE_URI BASE_URI</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Parse the syntax at the RDF::Redland::URI <em>SOURCE_URI</em> with optional base RDF::Redland::URI <em>BASE_URI</em>. If the base URI is given then the content is parsed as if it was at the base URI rather than the source URI.</p>
<p>Returns an RDF::Redland::Stream of RDF::Redland::Statement objects or undef on failure.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="parse_into_model_source_uri_base_uri_model_handler" class="item">parse_into_model SOURCE_URI BASE_URI MODEL [HANDLER]</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Parse the syntax at the RDF::Redland::URI <em>SOURCE_URI</em> with optional base RDF::Redland::URI <em>BASE_URI</em> into RDF::Redland::Model <em>MODEL</em>. If the base URI is given then the content is parsed as if it was at the base URI rather than the source URI.</p>
<p>If the optional <em>HANDLER</em> is given, it is a reference to a sub with the signature sub <code>handler($$$$$$$$$)</code> { my($code, $level, $facility, $message, $line, $column, $byte, $file, $uri)=@_; ... } that receives errors in parsing.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="parse_string_as_stream_string_base_uri" class="item">parse_string_as_stream STRING BASE_URI</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Parse the syntax in <em>STRING</em> with required base RDF::Redland::URI <em>BASE_URI</em>.</p>
<p>Returns an RDF::Redland::Stream of RDF::Redland::Statement objects or undef on failure.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="parse_string_into_model_string_base_uri_model_handler" class="item">parse_string_into_model STRING BASE_URI MODEL [HANDLER]</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Parse the syntax in <em>STRING</em> with required base RDF::Redland::URI <em>BASE_URI</em> into RDF::Redfland::Model <em>MODEL</em>.</p>
<p>If the optional <em>HANDLER</em> is given, it is a reference to a sub with the signature sub <code>handler($$$$$$$$$)</code> { my($code, $level, $facility, $message, $line, $column, $byte, $file, $uri)=@_; ... } that receives errors in parsing.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="feature_uri_value" class="item">feature URI [VALUE]</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Get/set a parser feature. The feature is named via RDF::Redland::URI <em>URI</em> and the value is a RDF::Redland::Node. If <em>VALUE</em> is given, the feature is set to that value, otherwise the current value is returned.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="namespaces_seen" class="item">namespaces_seen</a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Get the set of namespace declarations seen during parsing as a hash of key:prefix string (may be ''), value: RDF::Redland::URI objects.</p>
</dd>
