Comparison of dates using Oracle Business Rule

Hi to everyone! I have a business rule that has as input parameter a complex attribute with a date field inside named expiration. I want to compare the expiration field with the current date using a comparison function. I don't know where find the current date. The function Calendar.getInstance() return the current date? Any help we'll' be highly appreciated.

Calendar.getInstance() will give you the current date, and to find out the days between two dates; use Duration.days between(date1, date2) + 1

Testing rules designed using Oracle Business Rules in Oracle 11g SOA

Hi.
I want to test the rules designed in ORB from a java class or a JSP.
I am looking for a way to provide input from a form/UI , then execute the rules and display the result back on form/UI.
Any sample showing how to achieve this would be helpful.
Thanks,
Chinmay

Hi Chinmay,
Oracle's SOA testing framework allows any or all ofthe invoked services to be emulated. Simply click on the invocation in the process diagramand supply a response document to use instead of actually invoking the service. Tests can also make assertions about document content at any step in the business process. You can use a SOAP client to test you WS, such as Fiddler, generic SOAP UI, SOAP UI utility. You can also do your unit testing from the OBR Designer itself.
Hope that helps!

Using third party jars with Oracle Business Rules

Hi
I am working on Oracle AS 10g release 2.
We are using Oracle Business Rules in integration with Oracle BPEL.
While using third party jars however, Oracle Business Rules end is facing errors.
Error during unmarshallingProvider com.sun.xml.bind.ContextFactory_1_0_1 not found
oracle.classloader.util.AnnotatedClassNotFoundException:
Missing class: com.sun.xml.bind.ContextFactory_1_0_1
Dependent class: javax.xml.bind.ContextFinder
Loader: oracle.xml:10.1.0_2
Code-Source: /D:/oracleasr3/lib/xml.jar
Configuration: <code-source> (ignore manifest Class-Path) in META-INF/boot.xml in D:\oracleasr3\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar
Can anybody help in figuring out where Jaxb jars(3rd party jars) are to be kept so that OAS access it?
We tried using the applib folder to load the jars but we are getting class loading errors.
When new instances are created, class loading is not happening.
Pls help.
Thanks
Kavya

Are you using Application Server Release 3 or Release 2? There are different versions listed in your mail.
I think you probably want to add this as a shared library via EM and then import the shared library to your application with the application's xml config files.

Oracle Business Rule

Hello Everyone,
I am using Oracle Business Rule in an application for calculation purpose on the basis of some price values. The price values may be changed according to date. I want calculate the value by any previous date price.
Example price is Rs. x/unit valid upto 10-may-2006
price is Rs. y/unit valid from 11-may-2006
I want to calculate values with x/unit on 20-may-2006.
Every suggestion will be highly appreciable
thanks
saleem khan

If I understand you correctly then you would create two 'Rule Sets' for the same field.
Example:
Field: date Operator: <= 10-may-2006 Then: x/unit
Field: date Operator: >= 11-may-2006 Then: y/unit
Both rulesets will be validated when the API is called

Syntax errors in Oracle Business Rules carrental ruleset

Hi,
I'm using Oracle Business Rules Rule Author on Windows, version 10.1.3.0.0.
I'm working with the OTN carrental sample. If i load the supplied file-based repository CarRepository from the %HOWTO_HOME%/dict directory, navigate to the RL tab -> Generate RL-code and select the 'Check RL-Syntax' button I always get the same error message:
Error:'5}' is undefined at line ... column ... in [DM or vehicleRent]
If I navigate to 'Test Rulesets' i get the same error, no matter what testfunction i use with the vehicleRent ruleset.
When i test the sample with the supplied java code i don't get any errors.
However, if I follow the steps in chapter 2 (javaFact) or 4 (XMLFact) of the Business Rules user guide and setup everything from scratch for a filebased repository i get the same error at runtime.
I based the filebased repository on the supplied emptyrepository file.
Seems to make no difference whether I use a filebased or a webdav repository.
any help on this would be appreciated.
Rob

There are two problems here. First, there is a bug that causes this error string to be displayed incorrectly when using the RuleAuthor in any browser language other than English. If you change the browser language to English, you should see:

A syntax error is found. 
Error:'carrental.Driver' is undefined at line 4 column 14 in DM

The cause of this problem is that carrental.Driver class is not in the classpath for Rule Author. This isn't covered in the how-to. See section 3.10 in the Oracle® Business Rules Users Guide (B15986-01) (available from here).

From this doc:

Create a rule set you want to test. If the data model includes any Java classes, the
Java classes must be included in the OC4J classpath. The easiest way to do this is
to put the JAR files in the following directory, then restart OC4J:
$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home/applications/ruleauthor/lib

or add it as a shared library using EM (specific instructions follow in the doc) and then add that shared library to RuleAuthor.

JHeadstart, Oracle Business Rules and BPEL Process Manager

Dear JHeadstart Team,
I have some questions regarding integration of JHeadstart and Oracle Business Rules and Oracle BPEL Process Manager. As a matter of fact I don't have any work expriences with these tools so my questions may not be good and precise.
1- Using a business rule engine can dramatically increase speed of development and ease of maintenance.I had a very good exprience in using JHeadstart and Headstart in the past but I wanted to know if it is possible to use Oracle Business Rules in conjunction with the JHeadstart ? If so, What steps should be taken? Is there any known issue about this integration? Does Oracle Business Rules have any interference with JHeadstart or it is only used in model layer during insert,update,delete?
2- Is it possible to develope a system based on oracle work flow engine (Oracle BPEL Process Manager) using JHeadstart ? If so, What steps should be taken and how the changes in the flow of work would by applyed in a system developed by JHeadstart. Is there any known issue about this integration?
Any help,link to documents or general guidelines would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Navid

Couple of things I would like to add, are the following.
In the context of an ADF application usage of Oracle Business Rules most likely is in the business logic layer, but mind that it does not need to be restricted to that.
Oracle Business Rules takes so called 'facts' as input, evaluates some rules based on that and change those facts or return some result. That might be checking a business rule as defined in the JHeadstart Developers Guide. But it might also return some value that is used in a navigation rule.
Think about a page flow where after page A normally page C is presentend, but in case of some situation (like a customer ordered something and you want to present some special offering based on that) you want page B presented in between (i.e. A -> B -> C). Oracle Rules could be used to determine this page flow. This would be an example of using it in the controller layer (probably in combination with using facts that come from the model layer).
Another remark that I would like to make, is that in my opinion it does not make much sense to use Oracle Rules for business rules that logically more or less are part of your data model (like end date must be on or after begin date). You typically use Oracle Rules to implement business rules that are of a volatile nature, meaning that day-to-day business may require a change of the rules. One example is the navigation case that I mentioned before. Another (typical) example would be a rule that defines when a customer is a Gold customer.

Oracle Business Rule Engine

Hello Everyone,
I am using Oracle Business Rule in an application. I want to know that is it possible to call a rule
set from another rule file.
Suppose there are two rule files RuleFile1 and RuleFile2.
We have invoked RuleFile1 the by any how can we invoke the rule set from RUleFile2.
thanks
saleem

Yes, it is.
In RuleFile2, just add
include file:RuleFile1.rl;
Then, all of the elements in RuleFile1.rl can be referenced from RuleFile2. Since RL is interpreted, the file must be available at runtime.

ODI and Oracle Business Rules

Hi, I have a question that hopefully someone can give light to.
Our current requirement for an ODI solution is to have business users create or edit rules (not just table constraints, but actual complex business process rules) that they would like to apply to the data during integration. I was thinking of two possibilities for this:
1. Load a rule file in ODI and then execute the rules in ODI.
2. Use Oracle Business Rule.
Between the two options, which is most likely possible? I have yet to fully explore ODI so I'm not sure if both of these options are feasible. If not, can someone give me sound ideas to work on for this requirement?
Thanks,
Jason

Melli,
I just started with semantic so won't have many useful ideas for at least some time.
mostly there will be bugs and misunderstanding on my part.
At this point i do see that the supplied library is not working properly . see my other thread. Fixing that would be really helpful.
Let me know
As of Composer - well let's just say its cost ineffective for organization to use on pilot project..

Oracle business rule beta

hello everyone,
I am developing an application using Oracle Business Rule .
In the Rule author i want to use the variable in the form of array but
unable to declare the variable .
Any suggetion regarding this will be highle appreciable.
Thanx

Saleem,
Rule Author does not support array-typed variables. The best alternative would be to use one of the Java data structures like ArrayList.
