Hello All, I have posted few snippets on how to use Jena (jena.sourceforge.net) to create objects, specified in opentox.owl (http://opentox.org/data/documents/development/RDF%20files/OpenToxOntology/view), and then serialize to RDF. http://opentox.org/data/documents/development/RDF%20files/JavaOnly/JenaExamples/ Hope this will be useful, Nina Nina Jeliazkova wrote: > Hello Pantelis, All, > > chung wrote: > >> Dear Nina, All, >> >> On Tue, 2009-12-01 at 19:21 +0200, Nina Jeliazkova wrote: >> >> >>> chung wrote: >>> >>> >>>> Dear All, >>>> According to the current API, the objects of all >>>> "values" ( http://opentox.org/api/1.1/#values ) are Resources that have >>>> a "value" ( http://opentox.org/api/1.1/#value ) and a >>>> "feature" ( http://opentox.org/api/1.1/#feature ) which is a Literal. >>>> Wouldn't it be more convenient to consider of features as Resources. >>>> This way we establish the counterparts of the "feature definitions" of >>>> API 1.0. >>>> >>>> >>>> >>> In the opentox.owl Feature is a Class, i.e. a Resource.
