Records can be created in various ways. You can add a new record to your application or copy an existing one. You can specialize existing rules by creating a copy in a specific ruleset, against a different class or (in some cases) with a set of circumstance definitions. You may copy data instances but they do not support specialization as they are not versioned.
Based on your use case, the Create, Save As or Specialization form is used to create the record. The number of fields and available options vary by record type. Start by familiarizing yourself with the generic layout of these forms and their common fields:
This help topic identifies the key parts and options that are applicable to the record type you are creating.
NOTE: Create a Service Package data instance before creating a Service JSR94 rule; the name of the service package becomes the first key part of a group of related Service JSR94 rules. The class and method name key parts are considered "external" and unrelated to PRPC class and methods, for flexibility.
Create a Service JSR94 rule by selecting Service JSR94 from the Integration-Services category.
Key parts:
A Service JSR94 rule has three key parts:
Field
|
Description
|
| Customer Package Name
|
 Select a service package name (instance of the Data-Admin-ServicePackage class); this service package groups related Service JSR94 rules. Choose a name already defined by a Service Package data instance. See About Service Package data instances.
|
| Customer Class Name
|
Enter the name of the service class. This is an arbitrary text value that is a Java identifier, not an instance of Rule-Obj-Class class. See How to enter a Java identifier.
The service package name and service class name group service rules.
|
|
Identifier
|
Enter an identifier for the service method. See How to enter a Java identifier.
This name is an arbitrary text value; it is not an instance of Rule-Method. The service method named describes what the service rule does.
|
Rule resolution
When searching for a Service JSR94 rule, the system filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list of RuleSets and versions.
Circumstance-qualified and time-qualified resolution features are not available for Service JSR94 rules. The class hierarchy is not relevant to Service JSR94 rule resolution.
