      Sets whether the parser should stop immediately if it finds an error in the data (default value is `true`).

    - #### setDatatypeHandling

          @Deprecated
          void setDatatypeHandling(RDFParser.DatatypeHandling datatypeHandling)

      Sets the datatype handling mode. There are three modes for handling datatyped literals: ignore , verifyand normalize . If set to ignore, no special action will be taken to handle datatyped literals. If set to verify, any literals with known (XML Schema built-in) datatypes are checked to see if their values are valid. If set to normalize, the literal values are not only checked, but also normalized to their canonical representation. The default value is verify.
      Parameters:
        `datatypeHandling` - A datatype handling option.

    - #### parse

          void parse(InputStream in,
