[Pellet-users] Pellet and anonymous superclasses

[Robert Davey]

Hi all,

Is there any way I can get at _all_ the superclasses of a description
using Pellet, i.e. not just the named classes?  For example, in the
OWLAPI we can use owlClass.getSuperClasses(ontology) which will return a
Set<OWLDescription> which can include anonymous classes.

Using reasoner.getSuperClasses(description) returns a Set<OWLClass>
which cannot hold anonymous classes.

Why does the reasoner only return named classes as supertypes?

Cheers

Rob
