Interface PropertyValue

All Superinterfaces:
Comparable<PropertyValue>
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractBasicPropertyValue, AbstractDefinitionPropertyValue, AbstractSynonymPropertyValue, AbstractXrefPropertyValue, BasicPropertyValue, DefinitionPropertyValue, SynonymPropertyValue, XrefPropertyValue
public interface PropertyValue extends Comparable<PropertyValue>
Associates the container object with a value via a property. For example, a node representing an OWL class may contain a Meta object containing a PropertyValue mapping to a textual definition string via a definition property. Broadly, there are two categories of implementing class: 1. PropertyValues corresponding to a specific explicitly modeled property type (e.g synonym) 2. generic BasicPropertyValues - anything property not explicitly modeled A PropertyValue is minimally a tuple `(pred,value)`. However, each sub tuple may also be "annotated" with additional metadata (this corresponds to an Axiom Annotation in OWL) - Any tuple can be supported by an array of xrefs. - Some implementing classes may choose to model additional explicit annotations (e.g. SynonymPropertyValue)

  • Method Details

    • getPred

      @Default default String getPred()
      Predicates correspond to OWL properties. Like all preds in this datamodel, a pred is represented as a String which denotes a CURIE
      Returns:
      the pred

    • getVal

      @Default default String getVal()
      The value of the property-value
      Returns:
      the val

    • getXrefs

      List<String> getXrefs()
      An array denoting objects that support the property value assertion
      Returns:
      the xrefs

    • getMeta

      @Nullable Meta getMeta()

    • compareTo

      default int compareTo(PropertyValue o)
      Specified by:
      compareTo in interface Comparable<PropertyValue>
