[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBRULES-407) List retrieval for categories

List retrieval for categories ----------------------------- Key: JBRULES-407 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-407 Project: JBoss Rules Issue Type: Sub-task Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Reporter: Michael Neale Assigned To: Michael Neale As categories are heirarchical, we need to be able to have some api like: List results = getRules(String[] categories) and all assets matching these categories are returned. eg: Cat1 / \ Cat2 Cat3 If a rule is linked to cat1, then if we are looking at Cat3, we will NOT see that rule. If another rule is put in Cat3, and we are looking at Cat1, we will see all the rules "below" it. (ie: when we pass in Cat1 to the query, it needs to know what categories are below it to include when searching for rules). at present, I believe this categorisation is probably one of the more important things to get right to make the repository useful (for large numbers of rules anyway - assuming all that versioning and ACL shite can be done). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
