Re: [dotNetRDF-develop] Updating/inserting-into DB-backed graph without doing LoadGraph

[Rob V. <rv...@vd...>]

The exact behaviour of SaveGraph() with regards to how it affects an existing Graph of the same URI is left up to the implementer as it may be very dependent on the underlying store.  The XML comments for the interface state that implementations should note their exact behaviour in the comments for the SaveGraph() method.  This is typically stated in the remarks section rather than in the method summary though I'll make sure that methods clearly state this in their summaries from now on.  I have updated all the comments on the existing implementations as of revision 789

Will also update online documentation shortly to highlight this

Great, that likely explains a lot of weirdness. Maybe that method
should have a warning sticker, either in the online docs or in the
intellisense comments...
