The structure of this project has changed a lot now. A new join method has been achieved and we use it to replace the old one. The test result shows that speed is improved and the memory cost is lower. We also do some change to Parser/Sparql*, which are all generated by ANTLR. They must be modified because the code is in C, which brings several multiple definition problems, and its size is too large.
There is a bug in the original Stream module, which brings some control characters to the output, such as ^C, ^V and so on. We have fixed it now and enabled the Stream to sort the output strings(both internal and external). In addition, SPARQL queries which are not BGP(Basic Graph Pattern) are also supported now, using the naive method.
A powerful interactive console, which is named gconsole now, is achieved to bring convenience to users. What is more, we use valgrind tools to test our system, and deal with several memory leaks.
The docs and API have also changed, but this is of little importance.

We merge several classes(like Bstr) and adjust the project structure, as well as the debug system.
In addition, most warnings are removed, except for warnings in Parser module, which is due to the use of ANTLR.
What is more, we change RangeValue module to Stream, and add Stream for ResultSet. We also better the gquery console, so now you can redirect query results to a specified file in the gsql console.
Unable to add Stream for IDlist due to complex operations, but this is not necessary. Realpath is used to supported soft links in the gquery console, but it not works in Gstore.(though works if not in Gstore)

We add a gtest tool for utility, you can use it to query several datasets with their own queries.
In addition, gquery console is improved. Readline lib is used for input instead of fgets, and the gquery console can support commands history, modifying command and commands completion now.
What is more, we found and fix a bug in Database/(a pointer for debugging log is not set to NULL after fclose operation, so if you close one database and open another, the system will fail entirely because the system think that the debugging log is still open)

We implement the version of B+Tree, and replace the old one.
After testing on DBpedia, LUBM, and WatDiv benchmark, we conclude that the new BTree performs more efficient than the old version. For the same triple file, the new version spends shorter time on executing gload command.
Besides, the new version can handle the long literal objects efficiently, while triples whose object's length exceeds 4096 bytes result in frequent inefficient split operations on the old version BTree.

We modify the RDF parser and SPARQL parser.
Under the new RDF parser, we also redesign the encode strategy, which reduces RDF file scanning times.
Now we can parse the standard SPARQL v1.1 grammar correctly, and can support basic graph pattern(BGP) SPARQL queries written by this standard grammar.

We add API for C/CPP and JAVA.

We share our gStore2.0 code as an open-source project under BSD license on github.
