Method Detail

getClassExpression

OWLClassExpression getClassExpression()

Gets the class expression, instances of which, this axiom acts as the key for

Returns:

The class expression

getPropertyExpressions

java.util.Set<OWLPropertyExpression> getPropertyExpressions()

Gets the set of property expressions that form the key

Returns:

The set of property expression that form the key

getObjectPropertyExpressions

java.util.Set<OWLObjectPropertyExpression> getObjectPropertyExpressions()

Gets the set of object property expressions that make up the key. This is simply a convenience method that filteres out the object property expressions in the key. All of the properties returned by this method are included in the return value of the getPropertyExpressions() method.

Returns:

The set of object property expressions in the key described by this axiom

getDataPropertyExpressions

java.util.Set<OWLDataPropertyExpression> getDataPropertyExpressions()

Gets the set of data property expressions that make up the key. This is simply a convenience method that filteres out the data property expressions in the key. All of the properties returned by this method are included in the return value of the getPropertyExpressions() method.

Returns:

The set of object property expressions in the key described by this axiom

getAxiomWithoutAnnotations

OWLHasKeyAxiom getAxiomWithoutAnnotations()

Description copied from interface: OWLAxiom

Gets an axiom that is structurally equivalent to this axiom without annotations. This essentially returns a version of this axiom stripped of any annotations

Specified by:

getAxiomWithoutAnnotations in interface OWLAxiom

Returns:

The annotationless version of this axiom
