Just to be clear, there are multiple ways of ingesting RDF as a web services using SPARQLMotion and SWP. In addition to what Holger says, one can use owl:imports to import from a URL or use sm;:ImportRDFFromeURL to get RDF that is in any text serialization. It is as simple to connect to remote RDF in this manner as well as spreadsheets (Excel or tab-delimited), relational, etc. SOAP-based Web services are also supported. All of that has been a core part of TBL from the beginnings. We also support saving data or exposing data in a variety of formats, including SPARQL endpoints, RDF text serializations, a variety of RDF back-ends and relational (via SDB). -- Scott > > > 3- Instantiate classes and call methods in a 3rd party jar file from > > SparqlMotion?
