Constructor Detail

OWLLiteralImplPlain

public OWLLiteralImplPlain(String literal,
                           @Nullable
                           String lang)

Parameters:

literal - the lexical form

lang - the language; can be null or empty

Method Detail

getLiteral

public String getLiteral()

Description copied from interface: OWLLiteral

Gets the lexical value of this literal. Note that if the datatype is rdf:PlainLiteral then the abbreviated lexical form will be returned. That is, the language tag is not included.

Specified by:

getLiteral in interface OWLLiteral

Returns:

The lexical value of this literal. If the datatype is rdf:PlainLiteral then the return values are as follows: If the literal is of the form "abc@"^^rdf:PlainLiteral then the return value will be "abc" (without the language tag included). If the literal is of the form "abc@langTag"^^rdf:PlainLiteral then the return value will be "abc" (without the language tag included).

hasLang

public boolean hasLang()

Description copied from interface: OWLLiteral

Determines if this literal has a language tag.

Specified by:

hasLang in interface OWLLiteral

Returns:

true if this literal has a non-empty language tag, otherwise false

isRDFPlainLiteral

public boolean isRDFPlainLiteral()

Description copied from interface: OWLLiteral

Determines if the datatype of this literal is rdf:PlainLiteral. Note that literals that are abbreviated in the functional syntax (and other concrete syntaxes) and are of the form "abc" or "abc"@langTag will be of the type rdf:PlainLiteral after parsing.

Specified by:

isRDFPlainLiteral in interface OWLLiteral

Returns:

true if the datatype of this literal is rdf:PlainLiteral, otherwise false.

getLang

public String getLang()

Description copied from interface: HasLang

Gets the language tag of the literal.

Specified by:

getLang in interface HasLang

Specified by:

getLang in interface OWLLiteral

Returns:

A string representing the language tag of a literal. If the literal does not have a language tag, because it is not of the type rdf:PlainLiteral, or because its language tag is empty, then the empty string will be returned.

hasLang

public boolean hasLang(@Nullable
                       String l)

Description copied from interface: OWLLiteral

Determines if this OWLLiteral has a particular language tag.

Specified by:

hasLang in interface OWLLiteral

Parameters:

l - The specific lang to test for. The tag will be normalised - white space will be trimmed from the end and it will be converted to lower case. Null input will be treted as empty.

Returns:

true if this literal has a language tag equal to lang, otherwise false.

getDatatype

public OWLDatatype getDatatype()

Description copied from interface: OWLLiteral

Gets the OWLDatatype which types this literal.

Specified by:

getDatatype in interface OWLLiteral

Returns:

The OWLDatatype that types this literal. Note that for strings with language tag (previously considered to be untyped literals) the datatype will be rdf:PlainLiteral. The return value is never null.
