According to the docs: http://jena.apache.org/documentation/notes/typed-literals.html
These are all available as static member variables from com.hp.hpl.jena.datatypes.xsd.XSDDatatype<http://jena.apache.org/documentation/javadoc/jena/com/hp/hpl/jena/datatypes/xsd/XSDDatatype.html> . Of these types, the following are registered as the default type to use to represent certain Java classes: Java class xsd type Float float Double double Integer int Long long Short short Byte byte BigInteger integer BigDecimal decimal Boolean Boolean String string This is what I am seeing for xsd:short and xsd:byte. I'm puzzled by the type from getValue. CODE: System.out.println( "RDFDatatype: " + literal.getDatatype().toString() ); System.out.println( "Datatype URI: " + literal.getDatatypeURI() ); System.out.println( "getValue java class: " + ((Literal)literal).getValue().getClass() ); OUTPUT: RDFDatatype: Datatype[http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#byte -> class java.lang.Byte] Datatype URI: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#byte getValue java class: class java.lang.Integer RDFDatatype: Datatype[http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#short -> class java.lang.Short] Datatype URI: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#short getValue java class: class java.lang.Integer So, is the expected behavior? Thanks, Tim
