=head1 NAME

RDF::Redland::URI - Redland RDF URI Class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use RDF::Redland;

  my $uri=new RDF::Redland::URI("http://example.com/");

  my $uri2=RDF::Redland::URI->new_from_uri($uri);

  print $uri2->as_string,"\n";

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Represents a URI as a mostly-opaque object for identifying things
in the RDF world.  The URIs are also used for identifying features
for the RDF::Redland::Parser and RDF::Redland::Serializer classes.
