Defines a vocabulary of RDF constants used by the latest release of DAML+oil
for class and property names. The contract maintained by the DAML_OIL class
is that it will be periodically updated to reflect the latest release of DAML+OIL.
Currently this is the March 2001 release. Older versions of the DAML+OIL
vocabulary, for compatability with older ontology documents, are maintained in
classes named DAML_OIL_YYYY_MM, for example DAML_OIL_2000_12.
Note that rudimentary support for multiple versions of DAML namespaces is
included in this release, by the mechanism of providing methods with the same
names as the static constants in the
DAMLVocabulary interface. This mechanism
is still under design review, and may change in future versions of Jena.
Note also that the capitalisation of
the constants herein is designed to follow normal practice in the RDF community, rather
than normal practice in the Java community. This is consistent with the capitalisation
of constants in Jena.
