Hi,
I am not aware of anything in the SHACL specs discouraging cycles in
shapes, but the jena SHACL parser warns about it:
10.12.20 13:53:11.460 [main] WARN SHACL - Cycle detected : node
<https://example.com/test/PersonShape>
for this minimal example:
@prefix ex: <https://example.com/test/> .
@prefix sh: <http://www.w3.org/ns/shacl#> .
ex:PersonShape
a sh:NodeShape;
sh:targetClass ex:Person ;
sh:property [ sh:path ex:mother ;
sh:node ex:PersonShape ] .
ex:alice a ex:Person .
ex:bob a ex:Person ;
ex:mother ex:alice .
Is that intended behaviour? Does that mean we should try to get rid of
any cycles?
Or, alternatively, could we lower the loglevel on this one?
Cheers,
Florian
