Re: [rules-users] Template Key in DSL

Hi, Sorry to have kept you waiting. If you use plain DRL, you have 1 source of information. If you use DSL, you add an extra source of information by inserting the data in it. Adding DSL on top of that, adds a third source of information in the form of a vocabulary. In theory, the more disperse your information, the more difficult it will be to maintain. Until now, I debugged all templates in the same way. Expand them all completely and have them outputted to a real DRL file. Than, debug the outputted file and make corrections in your template accordingly. Here, imho, there is not much difference in a DSLR template and a DRL template, provided that you have a stable DSL. This is not a debugging method that I particullary like, but it gets the job done. If you assess the difference between a DSLR and a DRL template, the only differentiator is the DSL. In that case it comes down to the question whether you have a stable DSL or not. If your DSL is mature, I would prefer DSLR over DRL for reasons of understandability to non-technical users. Unless your template is meant to be hidden from the user.
