Hello Ivan, Thanks for your response.
The reason I asked about it was that a particular query was not working for me. Sample graph: urn:foo1 urn:prop1 "1"^^xsd:integer. urn:foo2 rdf:label "bar". Queries: describe ?x where {?x rdf:label "bar". } <- works, returns all the triples with urn:foo2 as subject describe ?x where {?x ?p ?o.} <- works, returns the entire graph describe ?x where {?x urn:prop1 "1".} <- fails, returns empty graph describe ?x where {?x urn:prop1 "1"^^xsd:int.} <- fails, returns empty graph describe ?x where {?x urn:prop1 "1"^^xsd:integer.} <- fails, returns empty graph describe ?x where {?x urn:prop1 1.} <- fails, returns empty graph describe ?x where {?x ?p 1.} <-fails, returns empty graph Also, select fails select ?x where {?x urn:prop1 1.} Perhaps it is my lack of knowledge on Sparql querying ... but is there some special syntax to indicate an integer in the "object" position in the graph pattern ? I think with simple literals, the describe is working correctly for me, but not for these kind of literals (but I have not tested extensively). Any help in this regard would be really appreciated ...
