Your best bet is to ask the developer of JessTab directly, as the answer depends entirely on how JessTab handles OWL restrictions, and not on anything related to Jess itself. I suspect that nobody answered your question on the protege list because nobody knows the answer. JessTab has only been converted to work with Protege OWL pnly recently.

I'd suggest that you inspect the Jess facts generated by JessTab (see them in the the Facts tab in JessTab). That may give you a clue to how JessTab translates OWL restrictions into Jess constructs, if JessTab does anything with them.

I apologize for posting a JessTab question here, but I haven't gotten any responses from the Protege list, so I am hoping that someone here can help me out.

Can anyone tell me how to access object-property restrictions from JessTab? I have declared object-property restrictions using someValuesFrom on an anonymous subclass, within an OWL-based ontology built in Protege.
However, I don't know how to use these when writing rules in JessTab.
I saw an earlier email in this list about JessAgentTab which converts ontologies from Protege to Jess and in it I guess they generate rules to represent constraints defined in Protege. Is this the only way? Will I have to write rules to represent all of my constraints instead of just being able to access them?

Thank you!
