Method Detail

isValid

boolean isValid()

Returns true if no logical inconsistencies were detected. If it is false then ether will be at least one error Report included. If it is true then warnings may still be present. As of Jena 2.2 we regard classes which can't be instantiated as warnings (of type 'Inconsistent class') rather than errors.

Returns true if the model is both valid (logically consistent) and no warnings were generated.

getReports

Iterator<ValidityReport.Report> getReports()
