RE: [oslc-core] Review of OSLC Discovery

Jad,
Perhaps this table Nick created would
be helpful:

Representation

Value
TypeReferenceInlineEither
Resource

Represents an IRIA
link to an RDF resource with a stable URI. The target RDF resource SHOULD
NOT contained within the same RDF graph or same http resource as the source
resource; a client may expect to be able to GET this URI separately and
independently from the source URI (and possibly PUT/POST to it).A
link to an RDF resource with a stable URI, which might be a hash URI. The
target MUST be contained within the same RDF graph or same http resource
as the source resource.A
link to an RDF resource with a stable URI, which might be a hash URI. The
target RDF resource MAY be contained in the same graph or http resource
as the source, so the GET of the source URI might also fetch the target
resource.
LocalResource

Represents a blank noden/aA
link to an RDF resource with or blank node, The target MUST be a blank
node within the same RDF graph or same http resource as the source resource.
Clients MUST assume the resource is not separately fetchable or modifiable.n/a
AnyResource

Represents either an IRI or blank
noden/aA
link to an RDF resource. The target MUST be contained within the same RDF
graph or same http resource as the source resource. Clients MUST NOT make
any assumptions about the nature of the URI for this resource.A
link to a resource. The representation and location of the target is not
defined. Clients MUST NOT make any assumptions about the nature of the
URI for this resource.

So as you can see, if the valueType
is specified to be LocalResource, the Representation must be InLine, its
the only one that makes sense. 

What we decided is using LocalResource
was too restrictive, and all references to oslc:LocalResouce in the shapes
were changed to oslc:AnyResouce so servers have flexibility.

Hi
Jim,
 
Things are getting clear,
but I have still have some doubts with stating that a Service resource
can be both a Local resource as well as a LDPC. 
 
In your feedback, you say
that “Local resource is about the representation of the content, not necessarily
its URIs. The shape constraint for ServiceProvider just indicates the Service
resources’ properties must also be included in the representation of the
ServiceProvider - it doesn’t require them to be blank nodes or have fragment
URIs within that representation”.
 
But in the Resource Shape
specs (https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/svn/oslc-core/trunk/specs/resource-shape.html),
it is clearly stated that for a oslc:LocalResource, “The object resource
MUST be identified with a blank node.”
 
And, when you say above “Local
resource is about the representation of the content”, this sounds more
like about the Representation being “inline”, rather than the value-type
being LocalResource?
 
When it comes to the constraints
of the ServiceProvider resource, the oslc:service property is currently
constraint to:
representation: inline àThis agrees with your description
value-type: AnyResource àThis means it can also be an oslc:LocalResource, which MUST be a blank
node.
 
Would representation: inline
& value-type: Resource be more appropriate?
 
I may be over-interpreting
the text, and this could stem from the usual confusion I have between Representation
and Value-type. But I‘ll try one last time …
 
regards

Hi,
 
I read through Discovery, and I just have a couple of questions (&
some minor comments). Please see attached.
 
Most likely, this stems from my confusion with the relationship between
OSLC2.0 resources and LDPC. It mainly relates to the Service and CreationFactory
resources. But might as well double-check if I got it right.
 
regards
