A shortcut so be able to define Subjects and Objects without specifing a namespace. When no namespace is given, Default will be used.

Example:

  IqRdf::sub.pred(IqRdf::obj) # => :sub :pred :obj.

This evals the given block in the context of IqRdF. You can use this to be able to omit the "IqRdf::" in your turtle statements.

Example:

  IqRdf::use do
    mySubject Rdf::type Skos::Concept # => mySubject rdf:type skos:Concept
  end

But: There is an inconsistency in Ruby 1.8 and JRuby <= 1.4 (even with —1.9):

  module M; end
  M.module_eval {C = 1; self::D = 1}
  p defined? M::C # => nil (should be "constant" (and is in C Ruby 1.9))
  p defined? M::D # => "constant"

This means, that use will only work with Ruby 1.9. Feel free to change this if you know another way then module_eval to achieve this.
