Subject: [Jdrew-all] OO jDREW 0.96 Released
Message-ID: <1217523805.4891f05d66157@webmail.unb.ca>

Hi all, 

A new version of OO jDREW (v. 0.96) has been released, with the following updates: 

A new RuleML/XML querying syntax (to complement the RuleML/POSL syntax) for taxonomy
queries has been implemented; for full details on this new feature readers are referred
here:

http://www.jdrew.org/oojdrew/docs/TaxonomyQuerying.html

Two new APIs have been released for OO jDREW. A specialized one for Taxonomy Querying
(which supports both RuleML/POSL and RuleML/XML); for more information readers are
referred here:

http://www.jdrew.org/oojdrew/docs/TaxonomyQueryingAPI.html

The general API including the Taxonomy API constitutes the complete OO jDREW API
(COjDA): for instructions on how to use it, readers are referred to this page:

http://www.jdrew.org/oojdrew/docs/COjDA.html

A bug has been fixed that caused the unification of certain typed constants when the
unification should have failed.

Corrected display of variable bindings in the user interface so that slot names are not
erroneously displayed.

A new document containing Systematic Variations of OID Use has been released:

A FindN primitive for the Top-Down engine has been implemented, complementing the
findAll primitive. This primitive for finding any fixed number of solutions to a query
is located in the default package of the downloaded version of OO jDREW. For more
information about the FindN primitive please go to the follow link:
