Mark Proctor closed JBRULES-1663.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Out of Date


I'm closing this off as I think the bulk of this behaviour is provided by the change set support - let me know if I'm wrong. If you want to discuss this in more detail, maybe pop onto irc or open up a jira with more information.

I'm normally against putting in links to other files in the drl, because it creates complexity and is brittle.

> The ability to include one rule file in another would be helpful from the stand point of overrides. I know this can be done using the package builder however giving the rule file writer the ability to include a parent rule file by directory would be of great benefit on some projects. This would allow an easy mechanism for override and extension paradigms for rules without moving into full inheritance (very much not needed). It appears that this was possible when rules were still xml by just using entities but that this feature has been overlooked when moving to text based drl files.
