public class PropertyImplRDB
extends ResourceImplRDB
implements Property

A variation on the default Property implementation that adds a unique database ID field. This could be hash generated from the string given a sufficiently unique hash but currently is assigned outside this class, typically as a generated ID in a database table.

Method Detail

getNameSpace

public java.lang.String getNameSpace()
Description copied from interface: Property
Returns the namespace associated with this property.
Specified by:
getNameSpace in interface Property
Overrides:
getNameSpace in class ResourceImpl
Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Property
Returns:
The namespace for this property.

getLocalName

public java.lang.String getLocalName()
Description copied from interface: Property
Returns the name of this property within its namespace.
Specified by:
getLocalName in interface Property
Overrides:
getLocalName in class ResourceImpl
Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Property
Returns:
The name of this property within its namespace.

getOrdinal

public int getOrdinal()
Description copied from interface: Property
Returns the ordinal value of a containment property.

RDF containers use properties of the form _1, _2, _3 etc to represent the containment relationship between the container and the objects it contains. When invoked on such a containment property, this method returns the integer part of the property name. When invoked on other properties, it returns 0.

Specified by:
getOrdinal in interface Property
Following copied from interface: com.hp.hpl.mesa.rdf.jena.model.Property
Returns:
The ordinal value of a containment property, or 0 otherwise.

port

public Resource port(Model m)
              throws RDFException
Description copied from interface: ResourceI
For internal use only
Overrides:
port in class ResourceImpl
