Re: [rules-users] Need help with Decision Table Conditions

I would not use I / DESCRIPTION for these reasons: * it's not parameterized, and I think you don't want to repeat the @Meta(...) for every rule, you just want the argument * you can use only one I column, since the 2nd one silently overwrites the 1st one, so you'll have to squeeze multiple @s into one cell * it is an undocumented feature, and the name would suggest that it was intended for providing a comment Adding a proper metadata column type is simple, given what is available from other column types. -W 2011/1/10 Tihomir Surdilovic <tsurdilo(a)redhat.com <mailto:tsurdilo@redhat.com>> Hi Jason, for fact types and attributes you should be able to reuse the Functions keyword in the RuleSet section of your sheet, for example: ----------------------------------------------- | Functions | declare Person @author( Bob ) ......... end | ----------------------------------------------- For rule attributes you can reuse the "I" keyword as the cell header and add the attributes, for example: ------------------------------------------------- |RuleTable Sample| | | ------------------------------------------------- | Condition | I | Action | ------------------------------------------------- | $p : Person | | | ------------------------------------------------- | name==$param| | | ------------------------------------------------- | SomeName | @author( Bob ) | System.out..... | ------------------------------------------------- Neither are optimal, but just workarounds. If you raise a Jira, I can put on todo list. Hope this helps. Thanks.
