Method Detail

getCardinality

int getCardinality()

Gets the cardinality of this restriction

isQualified

boolean isQualified()

Determines if this restriction is qualified. Qualified cardinality restrictions are defined to be cardinality restrictions that have fillers which aren't TOP (owl:Thing or rdfs:Literal). An object restriction is unqualified if it has a filler that is owl:Thing. A data restriction is unqualified if it has a filler which is the top data type (rdfs:Literal).

Returns:

true if this restriction is qualified, or false if this restriction is unqualified.
