Creating a rule

This topic describes how to create a rule.

First, open the Eclipse Workbench, if it is not already open. Also, open the Rule Builder perspective.
A rule must be created within a rule block. To create a rule, take the following steps:
  1. In the Outline view, right-click the rule block that you want to update.
  2. Click New Child and the type of rule that you want to create. The rule is then shown within the rule block in the Outline view, and the current information for the rule is shown in the editor area.
You can add additional rules to rule blocks in the same way. Also, using the editor, you can update the information for each rule. Proceed to Validating a rule set.
