Ok, thanks, but how do I do that in a template?

In the Drools Expert manual, search for 
"And, finally, here is an example of Import, Variables and Functions."

The figure below shows cells from a spreadsheet.

	Sorry - you're losing me - could you give an example please?

	Thanks

	It's just like a Java static method. Call JAva code if you don't want to put it all into DRL function, or import from Java in the first place. Both "import" and "function" can be used in spreadsheets.

		Agreed, but this was just an example - if the function required something more complicated - say a DB lookup, could it be done?

		If there are just 2 types (IRDELTA, COMLEASEDELTA) you can add a function that computes this from the 3-letter name.

			Possibly. Let me try again with what I'm trying to achieve.
			Given this excerpt from a decision table:

			Basically I want to be able to specify a template that says 'If Arg0 is a currency, output RiskType IRDELTA (and currency), if Arg0 is a commodity (begins with 'X') then output RiskType COMLEASEDELTA (and commodity).

			When fed with data, this would generate the rules:

			when Arg0 = USD, output RiskType IRDELTA, USD
			when Arg0 = GBP, output RiskType IRDELTA, GBP
			etc
			when Arg0 = XAU, output RiskType COMLEASEDELTA, XAU
			etc

			In this way theRiskType name is inferred from the data when the rules are generated. It can be done by explicitly stating all possible combinations as in the decision table above but that gets tedious quickly. I wanted to have a more general template that could generate all the specific rules instances.

			Does that make more sense?

			Thanks
			Chris

			I don't want to confuse you, but have you considered not using templates at all? If you can generate N rules from N objects containing different literals for matching a fact or for updating a fact field, then you can achieve the same thing with a single rule and additional facts containing those literal values.

			rule "one 4 all"
			when
			Â Â  Service( $name: name, $value: value )
			Â Â  $sb: ServiceBean( name == $name, value == $value )
			then
			Â Â  # RiskType ... is what?
			Â Â  ...$value..., ...$sb.getType()... 
			end
