[protege-discussion] Java-Protege Interfaces: how can they be constructed?

[Leaelaf M Hailemariam]

Dear group

My name is Leaelaf Hailemariam from Purdue University. I am currently 
developing an information management system that involves storing OWL 
files with class instances and searching through the list. However, the 
Protege interfaces (for search and edit) are too limited for my 
application: which is product development and thus involves such entries as material 
composition, list of experiments, links to raw data files and the like. 
Thus I am currently developing a Java interface for data entry and search. 
However, I do not know how I can 'pass' commands from the Java code to 
Protege to perform the required search (or edit and save an OWL file) and 
send the pertinent reply back to the Java code.

Thank you for all your help.

regards
Leaelaf
