DM_RuleBldTask

These methods create or act on a value of type DM_RuleBldTask. The value specifies a task for an Associations training run or a Sequence Rules training run. The value holds the settings for the run, and also a representation of the data source.

Before you use these methods, you must follow these steps:

Define the mining data (as a value of type DM_MiningData)
Specify the settings for the Associations mining model or the Sequence Rules model as a value of type DM_RuleSettings.

Use these methods before you build and store an Associations mining model or a Sequence Rules mining model.

With these methods, you can specify the settings and input data representation, and retrieve information about them from a value of type DM_RuleBldTask.
