Setting up the data sources for the decision table sample

You use the Samples Console to set up the sample.

To import the dtpopulate sample:

1. Open the Samples Console (see Running samples from the the Samples Console).
2. In the Samples and Tutorials tab, expand Rule Designer > Samples > Authoring extension .
3. Under Data sources for decision tables, click Import projects.
   If one or more files already exist in your workspace, Rule Designer displays a warning message.

   Rule Explorer displays the imported sample files:

   • dtpopulate-rule: The target sample rule project, which contains the decision table to populate. The sample shows different ways to populate the table.
   • dtpopulate-xom: A Java™ project that contains the execution model of dtpopulate-rule.
   • dtpopulate-application: A Java project that includes an Ant build file (build.xml) that contains different Ant tasks that are used to demonstrate different execution scenarios.

   Note: The target init.runtime is included in the build.xml file to help Eclipse set the runtime properties before it runs the sample: os (operating system), ws (window system), and arch (architecture). This setup works for most common configurations. If it does not match your runtime environment, you can modify the Ant target to implement the values of these properties.
