Method Detail

setMaxCardinality

void setMaxCardinality(int cardinality)

Assert that this restriction restricts the property to have the given maximum cardinality. Any existing statements for maxCardinality will be removed.

Parameters:
cardinality - The maximum cardinality of the restricted property
Throws:
OntProfileException - If the Profile.MAX_CARDINALITY() property is not supported in the current language profile.

getMaxCardinality

int getMaxCardinality()

Answer the maximum cardinality of the restricted property.

Returns:
The maximum cardinality of the restricted property
Throws:
OntProfileException - If the Profile.MAX_CARDINALITY() property is not supported in the current language profile.

hasMaxCardinality

boolean hasMaxCardinality(int cardinality)

Answer true if this property restriction has the given maximum cardinality.

Parameters:
cardinality - The cardinality to test against
Returns:
True if the given cardinality is the max cardinality of the restricted property in this restriction
Throws:
OntProfileException - If the Profile.MAX_CARDINALITY() property is not supported in the current language profile.

removeMaxCardinality

void removeMaxCardinality(int cardinality)

Remove the statement that this restriction has the given maximum cardinality for the restricted property. If this statement is not true of the current model, nothing happens.

Parameters:
cardinality - A max cardinality value to be removed from this restriction
