Don't know.

What reasoner configuration are you using?

Is there any other data in the "individuals" model?

Thank you for your suggestion ,Dave. I modify my code as you said.
Before p.addDomain(class2) ,the class2's SupClass is :
http://www.xxx.org.cn/standards/publishing/ontology/cores/class1.
But after p.addDomain(class2) execute ,class2's has two SupClasses.
http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Resource is added to class2's
SupClasses.
Now the question is : why would addDomain(class2) add rdfs:Resouce to
class2's SupClasses.
Thanks for your attention.

I'm creating an ontology from excel files and I have some problems to
make my program work.

The first problem I encounter is that I can't get the right superclass
.The simplest code example is below.

Code begin:

OntModel individuals = ModelFactory.createOntologyModel();

        TreeMap<String, String> namespaces=new
TreeMap<String,String>();

        namespaces.put("pubo",
"http://www.xxx.org.cn/standards/publishing/ontology/cores/";);

        individuals.setNsPrefixes(namespaces);

        OntClass
class1=individuals.createClass(namespaces.get("pubo")+"class1");

        class1.setLabel("class1", "en");

        OntClass
class2=individuals.createClass(namespaces.get("pubo")+"class2");

        class2.setLabel("class2", "en");

class2.setSuperClass(class1);

        System.out.println(class2.getSuperClass().getURI());

        DatatypeProperty p =
individuals.createDatatypeProperty(namespaces

              .get("pubo") + "haha");

        p.addDomain(class2);

        System.out.println(class2.getSuperClass().getURI());

Code end

The first output is:
<http://www.xxx.org.cn/standards/publishing/ontology/cores/class1>
http://www.xxx.org.cn/standards/publishing/ontology/cores/class1

The second output is : http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Resource

I have no idea why the two output are different? Have I done something
wrong? Any suggestions?

Mostly likely possibility is that getSuperClass is simply picking a
different random value from the set of super classes (see the javadoc).
I don't know if getSuperClass is supposed to list only direct superclasses
but if you are getting rdfs:Resource then probably not.

Suggest using listSuperClasses(true) to find out what's going on.
