Notifying the rule engine of object updates

When operating in RetePlus execution mode, you can specify which methods to use to notify the rule engine of object updates.

About this task

If you want the rule engine to be notified when a method changes the state of an object, ruleset parameter, or ruleset variable when rules are run with the RetePlus execution mode, you can specify which methods to use to activate a notification.

Procedure

To specify the methods that can activate updates:

  1. In the Outline view, click the method you want to specify.
  2. On the Member page of the BOM Editor, in the General Information section, select the Update object state check box.
  3. Save the BOM entry.

    Now when you run rules with the RetePlus execution mode, the rule engine is notified of changes made by this method on ruleset parameters, ruleset variables, or objects.
