RE: [rules-users] Using the Rule Flow Builder GUI

Erm, I'd already raised a JIRA for rule flow support in the BRMS:- Provide RuleFlow editing capabilities within JBRMS -------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-851 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-851 Project: JBoss Rules Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Reporter: Michael Anstis Assigned To: Mark Proctor ________________________________ From: rules-users-bounces(a)lists.jboss.org [mailto:rules-users-bounces@lists.jboss.org] On Behalf Of Shahad Ahmed Sent: 15 May 2007 00:37 To: Rules Users List Subject: Re: [rules-users] Using the Rule Flow Builder GUI Mark, Kris, Thanks for the replies. ruleflow. (X)OR split (where you still on the TODO list. I look forward to trying out the XOR decision node stuff. By the looks of the code in the trunk, the core stuff isn't to far for completion. a ruleflow-group Reuse of ruleflow-groups is a good start, but allowing rules to belong to more than one group is definitely worth considering at some point. I may just give this a go and see what it looks like:) What I've found is that when you use a decent BRMS (like the new BRMS in JBoss Rules) and have all your rules in one place, then the potential for reuse really starts to become apparent. Incidentally, is there any merit to adding ruleflow management into the BRMS, if only to allow them to be versioned and added to the repository. Perhaps they could be an additional element to a package (i.e like Business rules, models etc.). I can see that defining ruleflows is probably not something that could be done easily (if at all) in the BRMS web app itself. in the flow. the starting point to this Kris, I assume you meant create an XOR Join (not Split) as the starting point of the loop, in which case I can see how that would work - thanks.

Some of the stuff is already partially implemented, but an (X)OR split (where you can define which path(s) to follow based on some conditions) is still on the TODO list. allow loops in the flow. It does support the creation of loops: create an XOR split as the starting point of your loop, you can then always create nodes that link back to this starting point, resulting in a loop. Note that looping kind of depends on the (X)OR split as well, as that would allow you to exit the loop in specific conditions (now you will probably create an endless loop). I hope I'll be able to add that piece of functionality pretty soon to trunk.
