Method Detail

parse

public OWLOntologyFormat parse(OWLOntologyInputSource inputSource,
                               OWLOntology ontology)
                        throws OWLParserException

Description copied from interface: OWLParser

Parses the ontology that has a concrete representation which is pointed to by the specified input source. Implementors of this method should load any imported ontologies with the makeImportsLoadRequest method on OWLOntologyManager.

Parameters:

inputSource - The input source which points the concrete representation. If the input source can provider a Reader then the ontology is parsed from the Reader. If the input source cannot provide a reader then it is parsed from the InputStream. If the input source cannot provide an InputStream then it is parsed from the physical URI.

ontology - The ontology which the representation will be parsed into

Returns:

An OWLOntologyFormat which describes the concrete representation format which was parsed to obtain the ontology.

Throws:

OWLParserException

setOWLOntologyManager

public void setOWLOntologyManager(OWLOntologyManager owlOntologyManager)

Description copied from interface: OWLParser

Sets the OWLOntologyManager which should be used to load imports etc.

Specified by:

setOWLOntologyManager in interface OWLParser

Overrides:
