ILOG® JRules connector includes
a wizard that you can use to configure properties and link schemas
in the stage to invoke the selected JRules ruleset when the job runs.
About this task
When you configure the stage to invoke a specific JRules
ruleset, the number of input links must match the number of IN and
IN_OUT ruleset parameters, and the number of output links must match
the number of OUT and IN_OUT parameters. Reject links on the stage
are excluded from this formula and are ignored by the configuration
wizard. If you know the number and type of ruleset parameters in advance,
you can define the correct number of links of correct types on the
stage before invoking the wizard. If the information is not available,
you can still launch the wizard and use it to locate the ruleset of
interest and find out the number and type of parameters defined for
it. However, if there are missing links, then you have to cancel the
wizard and manually add the required links in order for the wizard
to be able to complete the stage configuration because the wizard
cannot automatically add any links to the stage.
Procedure
- Double-click the ILOG JRules
stage.
- Click Configure.
- On the Wizard action and log file settings page,
select Import ruleset parameters.
- (Optional) Specify the path of the log file in the Log
file path field to store the debug information, then click Next.
- On the Engine mode and ruleset filter page,
specify the engine mode and ruleset filter expression, then click Next.
- Configure the subsequent screen depending on engine mode
selected.
- If you selected Core engine as engine
mode, the Ruleset Archive selection page is
displayed. Select the Include inherited methods check
box to specify whether to process methods that the ruleset parameter Java™ classes inherit from their
ancestor classes. Specify the ruleset archive file for which to configure
the stage.
- If you selected either J2SE RES XU or J2EE
RES XU as engine mode, the Deployed ruleset
selection page is displayed. Select the Include
inherited methods check box to specify whether to process
methods that the ruleset parameter Java classes
inherit from their ancestor classes. Specify the deployed ruleset
for which to configure the stage.
- On the Ruleset Parameters selection page,
configure the import mode and the ruleset parameters and the corresponding Java class methods for which to
configure schema definitions for the links defined on the stage.
- On the Schema mapping for the links and ruleset
parameters page, define the associations among the ruleset
parameters and the links of the stage.
- On the Import ruleset parameters preview page,
review the report and the summary of expected results and click Finish.
