I'm working on understanding how to initialize a variable's value when using an ontology (written on OWL) and SWRL rules. To test this initialization problem I've created (on Protegé 4.3) a test class called Test, an individual of that class called Indiv and a property called Prop, with Test domain and int range. After that, I created a rule like this: Test(Indiv)->Prop(Indiv,5). If I understood a previous explanation correctly, now Indiv should have a 5 on its Prop property, but I can't see anything happening (Probably that's another question, how can I see on Protegé the change the rule does?)

1which reasoner are you using? – Ignazio Jan 28 '14 at 07:37

As @Ignazio is alluding, you'll need to use enable a reasoner that can process the SWRL rules in order to see inferences based on the rules. – Joshua Taylor Jan 29 '14 at 02:05

My bad, I didn't include that I'm using the Pellet plug in for Protegé as a reasoner. – jmnavarro Jan 29 '14 at 08:48
