SiRPAC is a reference implementation of an RDF parser which does a compilation process from XML encoding syntax to the triples (3-tuples) of the underlying data model.

Said another way: This program compiles RDF/XML documents into the triples of the corresponding RDF data model.

This version is suitable for embedded use as well as command line use.

You can feed the triples to your favorite logic programming environment to run queries with them, but you cannot "round trip" in the other direction (from triples to RDF/XML encoding).

An online compilation and visualization service using SiRPAC is also available at http://jigsaw.w3.org:8000/description.

SiRPAC version uses SAX V1.0 available at: http://www.microstar.com/XML/SAX/.

You can suppress the printing of certain triples to standard output by commenting out the corresponding line from SiRPAC:

(print Triples (System.out);)
