No, sorry. The I is a workaround, but people should be cautiioned not to rely on it for the future.

Hi Wolfgang, good points, thus I asked for a Jira so we can add proper support for it.
If you know of a better workaround with whats currently available let us know.

Thanks.

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.

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.
Tihomir

Tihomir, Do you know if decision tables support metadata?
