Documentation & JavaDoc for Oracle Business Rules

Hi,
I am looking for a documentation and java doc of Oracle Business Rules. All the corresponding sites seems to be down since last month
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/business_rules/index.html
and also there is no documentation available. I have language reference guide but It doesnt suffice my purpose. If there is some manual where I can find hello world programs will be very helpful.
Eg: How to use RuleSessionPool and DataModels with helloworld program.
Thanks

Ruleauthor.ear and rulehelp.ear for Oracle Business Rules

I'm following the instructions for installing Oracle Business Rules in Standalone OC4J. The instructions say you need to get files (in the subject line of this thread) from the full Oracle App Server install.
This was a bit of a surprise because I'm interested in running OBR without installing the full 10.1.3 App Server (which is, of course, why I'm following the instructions to install on Standalone OC4J).
The files are in the Oracle App Server install directory (for "Disk 1") inside this file:
..\stage\Components\oracle.rules\10.1.3.0.0\1\DataFiles\common.jarMy question is: are there any other dependencies to the full Oracle App Server for running Oracle Business Rules in a Standalone OC4J?
Thanks,

Oracle Business Rules : File Type Rules Repository Creation Problem

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to create File Type Rules Repository(SOA Suite 10.1.3.3).
As per the documentation:user Guide
Oracle Business Rules supplies a blank file repository that does not contain a dictionary. This file repository is named "emptyFileRepository" and is located in the
$ORACLE_HOME/rules/lib directory.To setup a new file repository, copy and rename the emptyFileRepository file.
Then, provide this file name and location in the Repository Connect page
I did the same thing.I copied the emptyFileRepository and renamed the file.After giving the file location and click on the Create button it is throwing the error "Please provide a valid directory path." Please Help me to fix this.
The same kind of the question was posted on the same forum which was un answered.Please guide me to fix the problem.I googled a lot but no help found.
please route me to proper source.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
ravi

I was able to create repository for business rules few weeks ago perhaps I was using an old version of the firefox, now I upgraded to firefox 3.5.7 and get the same error. IE 7 hangs, did you get a solution yet?
I am planning to downgrade my firefox and give it a try. Please update if you find a fix.

I looked through the source code of one of our products that uses the Rules SDK to see if there is an easy-to-extract example, but it's far beyond the scope of a forum post. We'll probably create one or more blog posts that dive deeper into this topic, but I cannot promise a date for that. Keep an eye on http://blogs.oracle.com/fadevrel please.

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.

Can you deploy Oracle Business Rules to the other App servers

Can you deploy Oracle Business Rules to the other App servers such as Websphere and Jboss

Yes. Please see the Appendix C in the documentation at:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28965.pdf
For WebSphere, updated instructions will be released soon that allow all RuleAuthor features to be used.

Where can I find the complete Oracle Business Rules Java API Reference ?

Does anybody know where to get the complete Oracle Business Rules Java API Reference ?
The version on http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28966/toc.htm is incomplete. It is missing the entire "oracle.rules.sdk.ruleset" package.
Ki

Kim,
The oracle.rules.sdk.ruleset package is only for internal operation. The public interface to creating rules is oracle.rules.sdk.editor.ruleset , and this is included in the javadoc.

Problem in mapping Task payload parameters to Oracle Business Rules facts

Hi all,
We are using complex types from our project XSDs inside the Human Task payload. We intend to use these Human Task payload parameters to build routing rules using the Oracle Business Rules interface. Our observation is that when the complexity of these complex types increase, the business rules editor does not show these as facts that can be used in formulating rules.
Has anybody faced such a problem before. Any help is appreciated.
We are using the following link to add routing rules –
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25054_01/dev.1111/e10224/bp_decision.htm
Version details :
ADF Business Components     11.1.1.60.13
Java(TM) Platform     1.6.0_29
Oracle IDE     11.1.1.5.37.60.13
SOA Composite Editor     11.1.1.5.0.01.74
Thanks,
Yamini.

Problem solved. There was an element in the xml schema that had nillable = true. Because of this the XML Fact for that element would no longer be available in the BPEL Process. Removing the nillable and generating the XML Facts again solved the missing variable problem.

Oracle Rules Manager vs Oracle Business Rules

Hi
Can someone explain the difference between Oracle Rules Manager and Oracle Business Rules.
Is Oracle Promoting both the products?
What I understand is that Oracle Rules Manager comes a part of the Oracle Database 10g R2 (and 11g) and Oracle Business Rules is a part of the SOA suite.
Is there any difference in the positioning of both these products?
Our client is evaluating various Rules engines in the market and we want to make sure that we choose the correct product.
Thanks, Srini

He solves the same problem with rules and without. My question was what would be better? Why would you chose one over the other. I prefer rules that is easy to state, easy to read, and easy to implement. Clear text rules in Prolog being a firm favourite. :-)
Using a rules engine, with a fairly complex API, in order to define rules? I would want very sound and very robust justification for that.
Taking this EMP table example. If there is a single AddEmp() PL/SQL procedure interface for adding employees, it is simple matter to see what it does, how it does that, and test and debug that. The only knowledge needed is the ability to read and understand the source code. The same cannot be said of rules engines.
As for the issue of updating AddEmp() with new rules. Edition redefinition takes care of versioning database objects. And in a far more controlled fashion than dealing with a rules engine that is dynamically update now! while the database is in use - and you have no real idea or real control over when exactly now! was.

How to add Exception handling in Oracle Business rules Function

Hello,
We use to have good number of business rules in our application. So we need to have some functions in BR Composite.
Can some one let me know how to handle exception in Oracle business rules exception( Regular try catch will not compile)
is there any way please let me know.
Edited by: Network22 on Mar 25, 2013 10:21 AM

Why aren't you using por_custom_pkg.custom_validate_req_line to add extra validations.
Ensure that profile POR: Enable Requisition Line Customization is set to Yes if you were to use po_custom_pkg for Requisition line validations.
OAF calls por_custom_pkg at various points depending upon the values in Profile Options:-
POR: Enable Req Distribution Customization
POR: Enable Req Header Customization
POR: Enable Requisition Line Customization

Oracle RDF and Oracle Business Rules & Protege

A couple of questions:
1.) Has anyone used Protege to create frame-based ontologies which can somehow be used with Oracle Business Rules?
2.) Has anyone used Protege along with the RDF storage functionality in Oracle?
Thanks.

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..
