Method Detail

getSignature

public Set<OWLEntity> getSignature()

Description copied from interface: OWLObject

Gets the signature of this object

Specified by:

getSignature in interface HasSignature

Specified by:

getSignature in interface OWLObject

Returns:

Description copied from interface: HasContainsEntityInSignature

Determines if the signature of this object contains the specified entity.

Specified by:

containsEntityInSignature in interface HasContainsEntityInSignature

Parameters:

owlEntity - The entity

Returns:

true if the signature of this object contains owlEntity, otherwise false

getAnonymousIndividuals

public Set<OWLAnonymousIndividual> getAnonymousIndividuals()
