Re: [dotNetRDF-Support] [dotNetRDF-Develop] how can i use SPARQL to query local OWL/RDF file by using dotNetRdf library ?

[Rob V. <rv...@do...>]

Hi Anji

If the OWL file is encoded as RDF/XML (which tends to be the usual) then 
dotNetRDF can read it and represent it as triples.

Otherwise dotNetRDF has no special OWL support so it doesn't understand 
axioms, do reasoning etc but if you can work with your OWL purely at the 
triple level then you can use dotNetRDF for this
