[rules-users] Efficiency questions about DSL

[mfalaize]

Hi,

I was wondering how to use efficiently DSL with my rules and I have several
questions about it :

- First, I have the impression that we can use DSL files only in the same
package of the DSLR file. When I tried to load DSL files by the kmodule.xml
(specifying the different packages in the packages attribute of kbase) it
does not work. Do I have to load each DSL files programmatically or is there
a way to load it automatically by the kmodule.xml (and if it is the case,
how can we handle the parsing order of these files ?) ?

- An underlying question is is this a good practice to divide DSL files ? I
would like to translate all my rules in french and to put the generic
translations in a unique DSL file to reuse it in all of my different DSLR
files.

- I noted that we can use more than one DSL file for one DSLR file (it works
at the runtime) but when it is the case the DRL viewer of the DSL rule
editor does not work and I don't have autocompletion. I tried to put several
expander instructions but it fails. Is there a way to make it work ?

I think DSL stuff is underestimate at this moment by the community and for
my last question I would like to know what is the future plans about this
feature ? Maybe I could help to develop it.

Regards
