Hello Steve,<br><br>well, hm, yes, I'd seen from the source that it's possible to pass in arrays of strings as actual parameters. But I'd thought of pushing this just one small step further.<br><br>From a TemplateContainer created from a template .drl file (no column data yet) you could learn the column names. These names should correspond to fields in a Bean. Access a Bean Object collection, retrieving the values (by reflection) to expand the templates into actual rules.<br>
<br>Since there is a public Column[] getColumns in TemplateContainer, it's no big deal to implement it in an application, so I won't insist ;-)<br><br>Regards<br>Wolfgang<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/3/25 Steven Williams <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:stevearoonie@gmail.com">stevearoonie@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

<br>It would not be too difficult to extend the current API so that rule instantiation takes the actual parameters from an object.<br>
<br>What do you think?<br><font color="#888888"><br>-WL<br><br><br><br><br>
