Class OntologyService

java.lang.Object
  project35.soa.ontology.views.OntologyService

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, DisplayNameProvider

public class OntologyService
extends java.lang.Object
implements DisplayNameProvider, java.io.Serializable

a service used to mark-up form fields with ontology terms. An ontology service comprises at least one of:

• OntologySource which provides ontology terms
• OntologyViewer which renders ontology terms

if only the source is specified, Project35 associates it with DefaultOntologyViewer . if only the view is specified then Project35 assumes the viewer is responsible for both gathering and rendering terms for the end-user. if both are specified, then Project35 uses the source to provide terms to the viewer

An ontology service will also have meta data associated with it that describes things like the name of the ontology, the version etc. This information is recorded as part of each ontology term that is recorded in the *.meta layer of each native Project35 *.pdz file.

Note that this class corresponds to the "ontology_service" record defined in the XML Schema for the Project35 Configuration Tool.
