shapes-ISSUE-110 (single-property constraints): relationship between sh:constraint and sh:property and sh:inverseProperty http://www.w3.org/2014/data-shapes/track/issues/110 Raised by: Peter Patel-Schneider On product: http://w3c.github.io/data-shapes/shacl/ states: 2.3 Constraints A shape defines a group of constraints. SHACL includes a collection of Core constraint types that are covered in the next section. Additional types of constraints can be added using the extension mechanism. Shapes can be linked to their constraints via the following properties: - sh:property links a shape with constraints about a given property of the focus node. These constraints are called property constraints. - sh:inverseProperty links a shape with constraints about a given property traversed in the inverse direction of the focus node. These constraints are called inverse property constraints. - sh:constraint link a shape with constraints that do not involve just a single dedicated property. SHACL includes property pair constraints and other constraints such as logical operators. Example 41 does not follow this division: Example 41: Shape definition using ex:LanguageConstraint ex:TemplateLanguageExampleShape a sh:Shape ; sh:scopeClass ex:Country ; sh:constraint [ a ex:LanguageConstraint ; ex:predicate ex:germanLabel ; ex:lang "de" ; ] ; sh:constraint [ a ex:LanguageConstraint ; ex:predicate ex:englishLabel ; ex:lang "en" ; ] . Either Example 41 should be changed or the division between sh:constraint, sh:property, and sh:inverseProperty should be changed.
