Michel; The GUI (Classes view) displays a tree computed from rdfs:subClassOf properties. E.g. 'xsd:string rdfs:subClassOf rdfs:Resource'. The example you give is valid RDF/XML and is fully accepted by Composer, but Holger's point is that without a rdfs:subClassOf relationship, there is no way it can be displayed in the Classes view.
As further illustration, open the kennedys example, right-click on the :parent property and choose 'Show in Associations View'. The result is a tree hierarchy that is laid out precisely the same way the Classes view is, but using the :parent property instead of rdfs:subClassOf. I.e. the Classes view is an association view using rdfs:subClassOf and having that property is essential to appearing in the view. -- Scott On Nov 26, 5:30 am, "Bohms, H.M.
