[redland-dev] raptor rdf/xml parsing and encoding

[Sebastian Trüg]

The raptor API says that all strings (URIs and literals) are utf8. However, 
when parsing a file with encoding UTF-8 or encoding ISO8859-1 containing a 
literal with a german umlaut, I do not get utf8 in either case.

So before searching though the raptor code and trying to figure it out by 
myself two questions:

- Does raptor ALWAYS produce utf8 strings?

- Is the following code acceptable:

void raptorTriplesHandler( void* userData, const raptor_statement* triple )
{
   [...]
   switch( triple->object_type ) {
   case RAPTOR_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_LITERAL:
       fromUtf8( (const char*)triple->object );
   [...]
   }
   [...]
}

Thanks a lot,
