Extending elmo

Hi,

i am currently working on a rebuild of an ontology api for multimedia data.
This api uses some basic design-pattern of the "Descriptive Ontology for Linguistic and Cognitive Engineering" (DOLCE) from the Wonderweb Foundation, named "Descriptions & Situations"(D&S) and "Ontology of Information Objects" (OIO).
To be able to handle this design patterns using the elmo-api, i have to extend the annotation concept of the elmo-api.
More precisley we need an new annotation. We are planning to use an annotation like ( @special("here should be the spaql-querie for the entity"). i got the elmo sources from your svn-repository, but unfortunately i am missing some documentation to go through the code . Is it possible to get some more code documentation (text, uml figures) .

stefan

Re: Extending elmo

Hi Stefan,

There isn't any additional api documentation other then the user guide and api javadocs, unfortunately. We stopped generating UML diagrams from the source, once it started to fail, due to particular Java5 syntax.

If your new annotation just provides additional ways to map concepts and behaviours to resources, a solution should be straight forward, but I would be concerned about the performance of it.

The ResourceManager interface is used to manage the roles of resources. You will likely need your own ManagerFactory that will set up the SesameManager with your own ResourceManager that wraps the provided SesameResourceManager.

If you have any other questions feel free to post them here.
