Adding RuleApps

You add new RuleApps from the RuleApps view. Use only valid characters for RuleApp names.

Procedure

To add a RuleApp:

  1. Click the Explorer tab.
  2. Click RuleApps in the navigator tree to display the RuleApps view.
  3. Click Add in the RuleApps View.

    The Add RuleApp dialog is displayed.

  4. Click in the Name field and type the name of the new RuleApp.
    Restriction:
    Not all characters are allowed in RuleApp and ruleset names:
    • Use only letters, digits and underscore (_) characters.
    • The first character cannot be a digit (0-9).
    • Unicode characters identified as letters are allowed. (Only Unicode letter characters in the Basic Multilingual Plane are supported.)
    If you set Rule Execution Server persistence to file, remember that Windows environments are not case sensitive. The same restrictions apply to resource and library names.
  5. Click in the Version field and type the version number of the new RuleApp, composed of a major version number and a minor version number, separated by a dot. The major version number is >= 1 and the minor version number is >= 0. Example: 1.5.
  6. Click Add.

Results

The new RuleApp is added to the RuleApps list.

When you add a RuleApp, an empty container is created. It has a name and version number. You can edit the container to add one or more rulesets and a set of entities that specify how the rulesets are executed.
