Re: Wacky Duplicated Relationship Bug in 2.0


This is indeed a serious problem.  I believe that this is fixed in the
next build (out later today or tomorrow morning).

Subject: [protege-discussion] Wacky Duplicated Relationship Bug in 2.0

I discovered a fairly wacky bug, but potentially devastating bug in the
2.0 beta.  My ontology is fairly sophisticated, with every association
having a backwards link, and custom meta class to which a number of the
classes in the ontology comply. The meta class contains two instance
slots.  One points to instances which serve as the source for the
definition class (book, article, white paper, etc)  The second points to
instances which serve as an alias, or alternative name for the class
(e.g., some people call business entities by names such as data,
records, etc).

When I open up my ontology in 2.0, all of the links are duplicated.  If
I save the file, the pins file contains the duplicated references.  The
more times I open/close the project, the more duplicates (though the
referential integrity is blown after the first time).  We tried it out
on a few machines and was able to replicate the defect quite easily.

Has anyone else noticed this bug?
