An OWLSelectionModel keeps track of a list of OWLObjects. If the list of objects changes, any listeners are notified. Note that lists are compared using equals.

Method Summary

void	addListener(OWLSelectionModelListener listener) Adds an OWLSelectionModelListener to the list of listeners.
void	clearLastSelectedEntity(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity entity) If any of the last selected entities are equal to the specified entity then the selection is cleared.
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLAxiom	getLastSelectedAxiom() Deprecated. use getLastSelectedAxiomInstance(OWLAxiomInstance)
OWLAxiomInstance	getLastSelectedAxiomInstance() Instances of an axiom wrt the containing ontology
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLClass	getLastSelectedClass() Gets the most recently selected class.
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLDataProperty	getLastSelectedDataProperty() Gets the most recently selected property
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLIndividual	getLastSelectedIndividual() Gets the most recently selected individual.
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObjectProperty	getLastSelectedObjectProperty() Gets the most recently selected property
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity	getSelectedEntity() Gets the last selected entity.
org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObject	getSelectedObject()
void	removeListener(OWLSelectionModelListener listener) Removes a previously added OWLSelectionModelListener.
void	setSelectedAxiom(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLAxiom axiom) Deprecated. use setSelectedAxiom(OWLAxiomInstance)
void	setSelectedAxiom(OWLAxiomInstance axiomInstance) Instances of an axiom wrt the containing ontology
void	setSelectedEntity(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity entity) A convenience method that will delegate to the appropriate selection method depending on the type of entity.
void	setSelectedObject(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObject object)

Method Detail

getLastSelectedClass

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLClass getLastSelectedClass()

Gets the most recently selected class.

Returns:

The selected OWLClass, or null if a class is not selected.

getLastSelectedObjectProperty

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObjectProperty getLastSelectedObjectProperty()

Gets the most recently selected property

Returns:

The selected OWLProperty, or null if there is no selected property.

getLastSelectedDataProperty

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLDataProperty getLastSelectedDataProperty()

Gets the most recently selected property

Returns:

The selected OWLProperty, or null if there is no selected property.

getLastSelectedIndividual

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLIndividual getLastSelectedIndividual()

Gets the most recently selected individual.

Returns:

The selected individual, or null if there is no selected individual.

getSelectedEntity

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity getSelectedEntity()

Gets the last selected entity.

Returns:

The OWLEntity that was last selected.

clearLastSelectedEntity

void clearLastSelectedEntity(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity entity)

If any of the last selected entities are equal to the specified entity then the selection is cleared.

setSelectedEntity

void setSelectedEntity(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLEntity entity)

A convenience method that will delegate to the appropriate selection method depending on the type of entity.

Parameters:

entity - The entity to be selected. Must not be null.

setSelectedAxiom

void setSelectedAxiom(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLAxiom axiom)

Deprecated. use setSelectedAxiom(OWLAxiomInstance)

getLastSelectedAxiom

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLAxiom getLastSelectedAxiom()

Deprecated. use getLastSelectedAxiomInstance(OWLAxiomInstance)

setSelectedAxiom

void setSelectedAxiom(OWLAxiomInstance axiomInstance)

Instances of an axiom wrt the containing ontology

getLastSelectedAxiomInstance

OWLAxiomInstance getLastSelectedAxiomInstance()

Instances of an axiom wrt the containing ontology

Returns:

and OWLAxiomInstance (an axiom, ontology pair)

setSelectedObject

void setSelectedObject(org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObject object)

getSelectedObject

org.semanticweb.owl.model.OWLObject getSelectedObject()

addListener

void addListener(OWLSelectionModelListener listener)

Adds an OWLSelectionModelListener to the list of listeners.

Parameters:

listener - The listener to to be added. This listener will be notified of any changes to the set of selected objects.

removeListener

void removeListener(OWLSelectionModelListener listener)

Removes a previously added OWLSelectionModelListener. If the listener was not added then this method will have no effect.

Parameters:

listener - The listener to remove.
