Method Detail

applyChanges

default ChangeApplied applyChanges(List<? extends OWLOntologyChange> changes)

Applies a list ontology changes to a collection of ontologies. Note that the ontologies need to be managed by this manager, since import closures, ontology ids and configurations might be affected by the changes, and they are held by the manager.

Parameters:

changes - The changes to be applied.

Returns:

ChangeApplied.SUCCESSFULLY if the axiom is added, ChangeApplied.UNSUCCESSFULLY otherwise.

Throws:

OWLOntologyChangeException - If one or more of the changes could not be applied.

applyChanges

default ChangeApplied applyChanges(OWLOntologyChange... changes)

Applies a list ontology changes to a collection of ontologies. Note that the ontologies need to be managed by this manager, since import closures, ontology ids and configurations might be affected by the changes, and they are held by the manager.

Parameters:

changes - The changes to be applied.

Returns:

ChangeApplied.SUCCESSFULLY if the axiom is added, ChangeApplied.UNSUCCESSFULLY otherwise.

Throws:

OWLOntologyChangeException - If one or more of the changes could not be applied.

applyChangesAndGetDetails

ChangeDetails applyChangesAndGetDetails(List<? extends OWLOntologyChange> changes)

Applies a list ontology changes to a collection of ontologies. Note that the ontologies need to be managed by this manager, since import closures, ontology ids and configurations might be affected by the changes, and they are held by the manager.

Parameters:

changes - The changes to be applied.

Returns:

ChangeApplied.SUCCESSFULLY if the axiom is added, ChangeApplied.UNSUCCESSFULLY otherwise.

Parameters:

changes - The changes to be applied.
