The modeling tool has the capability of tracking your changes during importing your OWL ontology files. These changes are stored in the log file. The notification window shows the location of the log file in your local directory.

To see the summary of changes from your imports


  1. Open a new, or existing, CCM project.
  2. Import an OWL ontology.
  3. The notification window will show you the location of the log file.
  4. The file says something like the following:

    ________________________________________________
    
              Summary of Changes
    ________________________________________________
    
    New Concept Model : 3
    New Concept : 4
    New Datatype : 1
    New Property : 2
    ________________________________________________
    
              Details of Changes
    ________________________________________________
    
    New Concept Model: XMLSchema <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema>
    New Concept Model: Asymmetric <http://example.com/ontology/Asymmetric>
    New Concept Model: rdf-schema <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema>
    New Concept: BiologicalMother <http://example.com/ontology/Asymmetric#BiologicalMother>
    New Concept: Thing <http://example.com/ontology/Asymmetric#Thing>
    New Concept: Thing <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Thing>
    New Concept: Child <http://example.com/ontology/Asymmetric#Child>
    New Datatype: string <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
    New Property: has child <http://example.com/ontology/Asymmetric#hasChild>
    New Property: label <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label>
    ________________________________________________
    
    
    
  5. The structure is the same for all log files: a section for Summary of Changes, and section for Details of Changes.
