Introduction
The aim of the dotNetRDF Project is to create an Open Source .Net Library using the latest versions of the .Net Framework to provide a powerful and easy to use API for working with RDF. We are not aiming to create a full blown Triplestore in .Net but merely to provide an effective way for working with reasonable amounts of RDF.
We provide support for various different backing Stores in the Library as well as an API which allows arbitrary Stores to be plugged into the library. Currently we support the following Stores plus simple SQL based stores with SQL Server/MySQL:
dotNetRDF is being developed primarily by myself - Rob Vesse - as part of my PhD work but is also a project on SourceForge (SourceForge Project Page) and any help would be appreciated, please see the Contributions page for more detail.
Downloading
You can Download dotNetRDF to just get the compiled library or you can Download dotNetRDF Source to get the full source. Or take a look at the dotNetRDF SVN Repository if you'd like to get the latest source code.
Requirements
dotNetRDF requires both the Microsoft.Net Framework 3.5 SP1 and the following 3rd party libraries:
The relevant libraries are included in the release packages so you should be able to use the library without needing to obtain these libraries yourself.
