Business Rules-RuleSet in SOA Suite 11.1.1.4

I have already created a sample in soa suite 11g for business rule but when i tried creating a sample application in SOA Suite 11.1.1.4 i got a lot of issues.
Starting from 11.1.1.4 onwards there are a lot of changes also in Jdeveloper.
Strating from this exercise i will cover all the rules component http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifruleset,dictionary,bucket etc.In this exercise we will create a simple scenario of a business rule using ruleset and will see how does it work.

If you are on a previous version of SOA suite you can follow my previous post on this link

You have to follow the similar steps as mentioned in my previous post

This is how my process will look like



Now if you can see i have define two assign activity here

The first assign activity will pass the input variable to the business rule engine,Here you need to take care as the process input variable for the bpel is a global variable and the input variable for Business rule is a local variable in that scope so you need to map the global input variable to the local input variable of business rule as shown below



And this is the rule i have defined in my end.So this is a simple test scenario which i checked and is working fine.



No i have defined a rule that if input is arpit then output is ankit but for any other input i will get an error like this.

This is all fine but i had faced a lot of issue initially during the testing of this process.

initially my BPEL process was something like this.




Check the position of Assign activity in the scope and compare with the previous one.Initially i was using assign activity just before invoke activity and when i deployed this project i was not at all able to call this process.I was getting following error.

It took me a long time to fix this,Finally i moved the assign activity to first place in the scope activity as shown in above process and it worked fine.

Now let suppose down the line you have a requriement that now the output ankit should come for some different input let suppose nitin,then how we will do it.Knowing the fact this process is already in production there is better way provided by soa suite 11g that you can change the rules from soa-composer without redeploying the process.

So i will just go to my soa-composer

http://host:port/soa/composer and edit it for the new requirement.

Now make the changes as shown and commit it,

Once you will commit now you can use the new value nitin also to get the output ankit
