#### Classes

Batch | `TrackerBatch` executes a series of SPARQL updates and RDF data insertions within a transaction. since: 3.1
Endpoint | `TrackerEndpoint` is a helper object to make RDF triple stores represented by a `TrackerSparqlConnection` publicly available to other processes/hosts.
EndpointDBus | `TrackerEndpointDBus` makes the RDF data in a `TrackerSparqlConnection` accessible to other processes via DBus.
EndpointHttp | `TrackerEndpointHttp` makes the RDF data in a `TrackerSparqlConnection` accessible to other hosts via HTTP. since: 3.1
NamespaceManager | `TrackerNamespaceManager` object represents a mapping between namespaces and their shortened prefixes.
Notifier | `TrackerNotifier` allows receiving notification on changes in the data stored by a `TrackerSparqlConnection`.
Resource | `TrackerResource` is an in-memory representation of RDF data about a given resource.
SparqlConnection | `TrackerSparqlConnection` holds a connection to a RDF triple store.
SparqlCursor | `TrackerSparqlCursor` provides the methods to iterate the results of a SPARQL query.
SparqlStatement | `TrackerSparqlStatement` represents a prepared statement for a SPARQL query.

#### Structs

NotifierEvent | The TrackerNotifierEvent struct represents a change event in the stored data.

#### Enumerations

DeserializeFlags | Flags affecting deserialization from a RDF data format.
NotifierEventType | Notifier event types.
RdfFormat | Describes a RDF format to be used in data exchange.
SerializeFlags | Flags affecting serialization into a RDF data format.
SparqlValueType | Enumeration with the possible types of the cursor’s cells.

#### Bitfields

SparqlConnectionFlags | Connection flags to modify `TrackerSparqlConnection` behavior.

#### Error Domains

SparqlError | Error domain for Tracker Sparql. Errors in this domain will be from the `TrackerSparqlError` enumeration. See `GError` for more information on error domains.

#### Functions

check_version | Checks that the Tracker library in use is compatible with the given version.
sparql_escape_string | Escapes `literal` so it is suitable for insertion in SPARQL queries as string literals.
sparql_escape_uri | Escapes a string for use as a URI.
sparql_escape_uri_printf | Formats and escapes a string for use as a URI. This function takes variadic arguments.
sparql_escape_uri_vprintf | Formats and escapes a string for use as a URI. This function takes a `va_list`.
sparql_get_ontology_nepomuk | Returns a path to the built-in Nepomuk ontologies.
sparql_get_uuid_urn | Creates a fresh UUID-based URN.

#### Function Macros

CHECK_VERSION | This macro essentially does the same thing as `tracker_check_version()` but as a pre-processor operation rather than a run-time operation. It will evaluate true or false based the version passed in and the version available.
