Apologies for the overly brief explanation ... am at a bank where only internet access is on my phone. Additional apologies if I suffer from auto-correct errors. :)

[condition][] validate "{exposureType:ENUM:exposure types}" = AccountExposure($exp : {exposure type});

[consequence][] Create limit check = insert(new LimitCheck($exp);

Now, dependent on what exposure type I select, I need to use a different value to perform conversions between amounts and percentages. So it would keep things clean if I could pass the property name selected in the LHS to the object inserted on the RHS.

I could do it by having different DSL phrases for consequences, but my audience is very non technical so I'm trying to keep the language as minimal as possible.

Hope that explains it!

Hi Steve,
Can you please gives us an example about what are you trying to achieve? 
Setting a variable in the LHS doesn't make sense for the common use cases. What we usually do is to bind a variable to a field from our facts, but that's it.

Cheers
