Note that an "error" from this program does not necessarily mean data is invalid, since it is not required to explicitly list types in RDF, however it -is a good idea to do so. If data type definitions are available with an -xsd:pattern property, literals with that datatype will be checked against the -xsd:pattern (a regular expresssion) to ensure they are valid. - -This program does not retrieve any data from the web or magical places on the -file system. It only processes files passed directly on the command line. -This means you must pass all used vocabularies to get a useful result. - +is a good idea to do so. + +This program never retrieves data from the web or magical places on the file +system, it only processes files passed directly on the command line. This +means you must pass all used vocabularies to get a useful result. + +If an appropriate schema is available, literals are checked against datatype +definitions (both the explicit datatype of the literal itself as well as any +types implied by the corresponding property). Three XML Schema Datatypes (XSD) +constraints are currently supported: regular expressions (xsd:pattern), and +inclusive range (xsd:minimumInclusive and xsd:maximumInclusive).
