Just a final thought on this thread: Long, long ago (about two or three years in Earth time) in a land far, far away (Dallas, Texas) we were on a project wherein we actually wanted to create a "rule writer." This meant that the rule engine itself would decide that more rules were needed, would write the rule, generate the Java code, recompile the Java code and put the system back on-line - all automagically. It was fairly complex but it actually worked for some initial test runs. However, since this was during the "fun" part of the project, it never was implemented in its full beauty and magic. Sad. <sigh>
However, we did prove that it could be done. As a matter of fact, we had another fellow who implemented a Java Bean writer as a "fun" project that would write a Bean, compile it, and insert it into the project whenever needed. Are computers grand? :-) -- SDG jco --------------------------------- James C.
