I have a question about how to express something in Jena. Assume we have an individual a that is of type A, where A would actually be a collection of classes and subclasses. Also assume we have a class B that has been defined. B may include some class restrictions that place constraints on which resources can be instances of that class. As a simple case, B may be defined as disjoint with A. What would be the means of asking whether individual a can be of class B based on currently defined constraints?
Individual.addOntClass returns void and throws no exception, so that would not seem to work. Would another approach be to get the OntClasses associated with individual a and then calling OntClass.isDisjointWith? David Jordan Senior Software Developer SAS Institute Inc.
