If true then the set of datatypes returned will correspond to the union of the datatypes in the signatures of the ontologies in the imports closure of this ontology. If false then the set of datatypes returned will correspond to the datatypes that are in the signature of this just this ontology.
    
    Returns:
    
    A set of datatypes that are in the signature of this ontology and possibly the union of the signatures of the ontologies in the imports closure of this ontology.

    getEquivalentDataPropertiesAxioms in interface OWLOntology
    
    Parameters:
    
    property - The property that the retrieved axioms make equivalent to some other property expressions. For each axiom retrieved the set of properties returned by OWLNaryPropertyAxiom.getProperties() will contain property.
    
    Returns:
    
    A set of OWLEquivalentDataPropertiesAxiom s such that each axiom in the set is of the form EquivalentDataProperties(pe0, ..., property, ..., pen) . The set that is returned is a copy - it will not be updated if the ontology changes. It is therefore safe to apply changes to this ontology while iterating over this set.

    A set of OWLDisjointDataPropertiesAxiom s such that each axiom in the set is of the form DisjointDataProperties(pe0, ..., property, ..., pen) . The set that is returned is a copy - it will not be updated if the ontology changes. It is therefore safe to apply changes to this ontology while iterating over this set.
