Re: [rules-dev] Rule templates fed from objects
Hello Steve,
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.
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.
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 ;-)

Hi Wolfgang,
This has already been done - take a look at the tests in the templates
project. I think I also put some in the examples project.
cheers
