[protege-discussion] Exporting from Protege Database to OWL

[Tania Tudorache]

Cecil,

Thank you very much for sending the SQL dump.

I've debugged this and the "problem" is that the Concept metaclass is a 
subclass of :CLASS rather than of :STANDARD-CLASS. In most ontologies, 
the metaclasses are subclasses of the latter. The OWL converter did not 
know how to interpret the non-standard meta-class, so it did not convert 
it. As a consequence, the classes of that metaclass where also frames 
classes, not OWL Named Classes, as expected by the converter.

The fix is simple. Just move the Concept metaclass under :STANDARD-CLASS 
and the conversion to OWL will work fine.

If you will use metaclasses for frames ontologies in future, I recommend 
to make them a subclass of :STANDARD-CLASS, rather than of :CLASS.
