RDF4J 3.2.0 is binary compatible with older RDF4J releases. As an end-user, you can upgrade without any changes to your code.
For third party SAIL implementors, the following notes may be of interest:
To enable RDF* support in your SAIL implementation, you will need to ensure that
your store accepts statements with a org.eclipse.rdf4j.model.Triple as either
the subject or the object.
To additionally enable SPARQL* support, you will need to ensure that the
org.eclipse.rdf4j.query.algebra.evaluation.TripleSource object supplied to
the SPARQL EvaluationStrategy is extended to additionally implement
org.eclipse.rdf4j.query.algebra.evaluation.RDFStarTripleSource. If your
triplestore implements its own EvaluationStrategy for the RDF4J algebra
model, you will need to extend it to evaluate the new
org.eclipse.rdf4j.query.algebra.TripleRef and
org.eclipse.rdf4j.query.algebra.ValueExprTripleRef nodes.
Please be advised that RDF* and SPARQL* support is currently experimental. We welcome your feedback on the current design and if you require any further input on how to best go about supporting RDF* and SPARQL*, we’d love to hear from you.
Eclipse RDF4J™ is a powerful Java framework for processing and handling RDF data. This includes creating, parsing, scalable storage, reasoning and querying with RDF and Linked Data. It offers an easy-to-use API that can be connected to all leading RDF database solutions. It allows you to connect with SPARQL endpoints and create applications that leverage the power of linked data and Semantic Web.
