Michael,
I actually like the basic concept of validating decision tables, my issue is
that we have FIT tests (in Excel) in a separate source folder in our "rules
project". These .xls files are falsely being identified as decision tables
with a ton of problems. Validation also seems to take much longer than it
does with the 3.0.x branch (like from 30 seconds in 3.0 to to 5 minutes in
3.1 !?!?). Though the two issues may be related.
A common way of dealing with this problem in Eclipse is to allow for
ant-like "source path include/exclude" patterns.
i.e. exclude test/**/*.xls
For that matter it would be nice to have the same thing for standard DRL
files. The validation of a large rule base can take some time and randomly
results in exceptions much of the time. Once I've tested and verified a set
of rules I could (optionally) exclude them from validation.
I'll write this all up in the JIRA this evening.
Thanks again,
Bree

Hi Bree.
Well, thats a new thing Kris threw in - cause people were asking for it.
It should only validate ones in the rules project itself - I assume that is
what you mean?
If this is a problem for you, could you create a JIRA and state your case?
it may be a case of having an optional config dialog to setup where .xls may
live and where they dont.
Regards,
Michael.
