Code Generation For Business Rules
After you have modeled rules for all Rule Task elements in the Rule Flow diagram, the Business Domain model is ready for code transformation. The internal code templates provided for generating technology-specific rule code work hand-in-hand with the EASL code templates to generate the code from the rules-processing Class and its Rule Flow structure.
Return a value from the Rule Flow behavior

---|---|---|
1 |
Double-click on the last Rule Task element before the end node of the Rule Flow diagram. The element's 'Properties' dialog displays. |
Create a Business Domain Model |
2 |
Click on the 'Effect' tab. |
|
3 |
In the 'Effect' field, type the return statement; for example, return True. |
|
4 |
Click on the , and on the to close the dialog. Generate code for the Class containing the rule flow behavior (in our initial example, Rental System); the code for business rules logic is generated, with the rule statements expressed in natural language as comments. |
Generate code for a single class |
