org.kepler.sms.SemanticTypeDefinition

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, Changeable, Configurable, Debuggable, DebugListener, Derivable, ModelErrorHandler, MoMLExportable, Moveable, Nameable, Settable

public class SemanticTypeDefinition
extends ConfigurableAttribute

A data structure to hold a semantic type given in a kar file. The property can contain a configuration (configure element), which gives the concept definition in OWL-DL. One can also give a source file, however, this functionality is not yet supported.

                              java.lang.String name)
                       throws IllegalActionException,
                              NameDuplicationException

Constructor

Parameters:

container - Description of the Parameter

name - The value of the property

Throws:

IllegalActionException - Description of the Exception

NameDuplicationException - Description of the Exception

SemanticTypeDefinition

public SemanticTypeDefinition(Workspace workspace)

Constructor

Parameters:

workspace - Description of the Parameter

Method Detail

getDefaultExpression

public java.lang.String getDefaultExpression()

returns the default expression which is null

Specified by:

getDefaultExpression in interface Settable

Overrides:

getDefaultExpression in class ConfigurableAttribute

Returns:

The defaultExpression value. Currently if not given, then unknown.

See Also:

ConfigurableAttribute.setExpression(String)

getConceptId

public java.lang.String getConceptId()

return the value of the semantic type

Returns:

The concept id

setConceptDef

public void setConceptDef(java.lang.String text)
                   throws java.lang.Exception

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

getConceptDef

public java.lang.String getConceptDef()
                               throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getVisibility

public Settable.Visibility getVisibility()

Description copied from class: ConfigurableAttribute

Get the visibility of this attribute, as set by setVisibility(). The visibility is set by default to NONE.

Specified by:

getVisibility in interface Settable

Overrides:

getVisibility in class ConfigurableAttribute

Returns:

The visibility value

See Also:

ConfigurableAttribute.setVisibility(Settable.Visibility)

setVisibility

public void setVisibility(Settable.Visibility visibility)

this method does not change the visibility. SemanticType should always be invisible

Specified by:

setVisibility in interface Settable

Overrides:

setVisibility in class ConfigurableAttribute

Parameters:

visibility - The new visibility value

See Also:

ConfigurableAttribute.getVisibility()

validate

public java.util.Collection validate()
                              throws IllegalActionException

validate the expression.

Specified by:

validate in interface Settable

Overrides:

validate in class ConfigurableAttribute

Returns:

A list of contained instances of Settable.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the change is not acceptable to the container.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Description of the Method

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

obj - Description of the Parameter

Returns:

Description of the Return Value
