  my $node3=$node2->clone;

=head1 CONSTRUCTORS

=over

=item new [STRING | URI | NODE]

Create a new URI node, literal node or copy an existing node.

If a literal I<STRING> is given, make a plain literal node.  If a
the argument is of type I<URI> (perl URI or RDF::Redland::URI),
make a resource node.

Otherwise if the argument is an RDF::Redland::Node I<NODE>, copy it.

=head1 METHODS

=over

=item uri

Get the current URI of the node as an RDF::Redland::URI object.

=cut

sub uri ($) {
  my $obj=&RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_uri(shift->{NODE});
  return $obj ?  RDF::Redland::URI->_new_from_object($obj) : undef;
}

=item blank_identifier

Get the current blank identifier of the node

=cut

sub blank_identifier ($) {
  return &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_blank_identifier(shift->{NODE});
}

=item type

Get the node type.  It is recommended to use the is_resource, is_literal
or is_blank methods in preference to this (both simpler and quicker).

The current list of types that are supported are:

  $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Resource
  $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal
  $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Blank

Example:

  if ($node->type == $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Resource) {
    print "Node is a resource with URI ", $node->uri->as_string, "\n";
  } else {
    ...
  }

=cut

sub type ($) {
  return &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_type(shift->{NODE});

=item is_literal

Return true if node is a literal

=cut
sub is_literal($) {
  return &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_is_literal(shift->{NODE});

$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal)

=cut

sub literal_value ($) {
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_literal_value(shift->{NODE});
}

=item literal_value_as_latin1

Get the node literal value string converted from UTF-8 to ISO Latin-1
(when the node is of type $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal)

=cut

sub literal_value_as_latin1 ($) {
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_literal_value_as_latin1(shift->{NODE});
}

=item literal_value_language

Get the node literal XML language (when the node is of type
$RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal) or undef if not present.

=cut

sub literal_value_language ($) {
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_literal_value_language(shift->{NODE});
}

=item literal_value_is_wf_xml

Return non 0 if the literal string is well formed XML (when the node
is of type $RDF::Redland::Node::Type_Literal).

=cut

sub literal_value_is_wf_xml ($) {
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_get_literal_value_is_wf_xml(shift->{NODE});
}

=item literal_datatype

Return the RDF::Redland::URI of the literal datatype or undef if it
is not a datatype.

=cut

=item as_string

Return the RDF::Redland::Node formatted as a string (UTF-8 encoded).

=cut

sub as_string ($) {
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_to_string(shift->{NODE});
}

=item equals NODE

Return non zero if this node is equal to NODE

=cut

sub equals ($$) {
  my($self,$node)=@_;
  &RDF::Redland::CORE::librdf_node_equals($self->{NODE}, $node->{NODE});
}


# Ensure the thing given is a Redland node, promoting it if possible
# from other perl objects.
sub _ensure ($) {
  my $node=shift;

=head1 OLDER METHODS

=over

=item new_from_literal STRING XML_LANGUAGE IS_WF

Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object for a literal value I<STRING> with XML
language (xml:lang attribute) I<XML_LANGUAGE>
and if content is well formed XML, when I<IS_WF> is non
0.  I<XML_LANGUAGE> is optional can can be set to undef.

This method remains but using new_literal is prefered.
Instead, for plain literals use:

  $node=new RDF::Redland::Node("blah")

=item new_from_typed_literal STRING [DATATYPE [XML_LANGUAGE]]

Renamed to new_literal with same arguments.

=item new_from_uri_string URI_STRING

Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object for a resource with URI I<URI_STRING>.
It is equivalent to use the shorter:

  $a=new RDF::Redland::Node->new_from_uri($uri_string)

=item new_from_node NODE

Create a new RDF::Redland::Node object from existing
RDF::Redland::Node I<NODE> (copy constructor).
It is equivalent to use:

  $new_node=$old_node->clone
