Thank you so much. I got it. However, I still
Wonder how my java application (like the example) will be integrated with
Protégé (GUI)? Will it have to be a new tab plugin?
May I make it as new menu option like "automatic loadin" under "File" menu
in Protégé?
Thanks again,
James

A few import plugins (e.g., data genie, xml tab, umls tab) do something
similar to what you want to do. You can easily write a Java application that
(1) loads/creates a Protege project, (2) reads data from your formatted text
file, and (3) makes Protege API calls to create the appropriate classes,
slots, and instances, (4) save the project. Take a look at the example file
http://protege.stanford.edu/doc/pdk/BackendNewProjectExample.zip, which does
everything except reading data from an external file.
