Hello, everyone,

I am new in using the RDF2Go. I am using jena in my project now and I wonder that how to connect org.ontoware.rdf2go.model.Model and the com.hp.hpl.jena.rdf.model. I suppose that the jena adapter should be used but have not figured out how it works. Thank you very much.

Hello,

Don't use RDF2Go. It's dead.

At least, if things are still like they were a few months ago. There
were three adapters: one for Sesame, one for Jena and one for some
other triple store, and all three were hopelessly outdated, adapting
to ancient versions. There was little to no developer or community
activity for over a year. For all practical purposes, it seems RDF2Go
has died long ago.

I had inherited a SPARQL-heavy project using RDF2Go to connect to
Sesame. A very old and slow version of Sesame, because that's all
RDF2Go could connect to. I got rid of RDF2Go, used Sesame directly,
updated Sesame, and the project became more than ten times as fast.

There are adapters to adapt Sesame to Jena and various other triple
stores. That makes Sesame a better adapter than RDF2Go.

Besides, RDF2Go may not adapt the way you want. For example, you may
think RDF2Go's Model adapts to Sesame's Model, when in fact, it adapts
to Sesame's repository.

Take care
Oliver
