Method Detail

isNode

boolean isNode()

Determines true if this IndividualSynonyms object can be converted to a Node< OWLNamedIndividual > without any loss, i.e., iff the IndividualSynonyms object only contains OWLNamedIndividuals.

Returns:

true if this object can be converted to a Node, otherwise false

asNode

 asNode()

Converts this object to a Node< OWLNamedIndividual > . This is only possible if isNode() returns true.

Returns:

Node<OWLNamedIndividual>

Throws:

org.semanticweb.owlapi.model.OWLRuntimeException - if isNode() returns false

isSingleton

boolean isSingleton()

Determines if this set of synonyms is a singleton set.

Returns:

true if this synonym set is a singleton set, otherwise false

getSingletonElement

OWLIndividual getSingletonElement()

Gets the one and only element if this set of synonyms is a singleton set

Returns:

the one and only element if this set is a singleton set. If this set is not a singleton set then a runtime exception will be thrown
