[protege-discussion] A few questions

[Tania Tudorache]

Andrew,

Please post in future the OWL related questions on the Protege-OWL 
mailing list.

The Protege-OWL API loads all the imports of an ontology, not all the 
referenced entities. It might be the case that the an entity is 
referenced but there is no explicit import statement for it.

In case you need a lazy load approach, you can use the OWL Database 
backend, which loads the entities on demand from the database. 
Currently, the OWL database backend does not support imports, but we 
plan to add this sometimes in early 2008.

Cheers,
Tania
