Re: [rules-users] Rewriting rules

Hi Wolfgang, Thanks. 'Object' was intended as a placeholder for any type and 'slot' for any attribute instance, sorry for the confusion here. I appreciate your suggestion below, however since there would be multiple rules which need this type of injection each requiring a unique (and only known only at runtime) id. By having a global id provider (aka ItemPara) it would be unable to provide the appropriate id - unless the rule identified itself when making the id request (ItemParam( field == "id", $value: value )). It seems that templates might be the way forward, although the rules will need recompiling each runtime. Because getting the value returned by op.eval() is extremely expensive and should only be done if this component of the rule is evaluated (assuming that the rule has a more complex pattern implicating other types).
