public interface OWLOntology extends OWLObject, HasAxioms, HasLogicalAxioms, HasAxiomsByType, HasContainsAxiom, HasAnnotations, HasDirectImports, HasImportsClosure, HasContainsEntityInSignature, HasGetEntitiesInSignature, HasOntologyID
OWLOntology
consists of a possibly empty set of
OWLAxiom
s and a possibly empty set of
OWLAnnotation
s. An ontology can have an ontology IRI which can be
used to identify the ontology. If it has an ontology IRI then it may also
have an ontology version IRI. Since OWL 2, an ontology need not have an
ontology IRI. (See the OWL 2
Structural Specification An ontology cannot be modified directly. Changes
must be applied via its OWLOntologyManager
