Anyway, regarding XML and rules: Both JRules and Advisor state that they have an XML Rule Repository. Well, actually, they have a "repository" of rules in XML, but I wouldn't exactly call it a true Rule Repository - not in the sense that Rick at EZ-Xpert sets up and defines a Rule Repository.

I keep my rulebase in the Directory (LDAP and/or X.500), using this schema: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bartz-lsb-policy-rule-components-00.txt When it's time to load rules into the rule engine, I read the rulebase from the Directory as DSML (Directory Services Markup Language, http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/dsml/ ). An XSL transformation of the DSML-encoded rulebase yields a format (such as a Jess script) which is suitable for interpretation by the rule engine. -- -- #::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::| # Larry Bartz | | # [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Ooo, ooo, | # | Ooo, ooo, oooooo! | # | I've got a gnu attitude! | # voice (317) 226-7060 | | # FAX (317) 226-6378 | | #::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::| -------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users [EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the BODY of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], NOT to the list (use your own address!)
